Roger Michael Hilary Minster, better known as Hilary Minster, (21 March 1944 Surrey, England [GRO Register of Births JUN 1944 2a 1045 SURREY S.W. - Roger M. H. Minster, mmn = Cochran-Carr] – 24 November 1999 [GRO Register of Deaths: NOV 1999 B60B 5 KENSINGTON AND CHELSEA - Roger Michael H. Minster, DoB = 21 Mar 1944, aged 55] ) was an English character actor.

He is perhaps best known for playing General Erich Von Klinkerhoffen in the sitcom "'Allo 'Allo!" between 1984 and 1992. Other credits include "Crossroads", "Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy", and a semi-regular role in "Secret Army" as Hauptmann Muller.

He also appeared twice in "Doctor Who", as the Thal soldier Marat in "Planet of the Daleks" (1973) and as an unnamed Thal soldier in "Genesis of the Daleks" (1975). This makes him one of the few "Doctor Who" actors to have played two characters from the same alien race.

He also had a major part in another episode of a successful science fiction series playing Yagon in Achilles Heel, an episode of "The Tomorrow People" in 1978.

He was a presenter and producer of Central Independent Television's flagship ethnic minorities current affairs programme "Here and Now" during the early 1980s.
