The Brigadier: Difference between revisions

 

 

* ''[[Doctor Who]]'':

** The aforementioned Lethbridge-Stewart as played by [[Nicholas Courtney]] is the [[Trope Namer]]. His first few appearances embodied this trope a lot stronger than he did later, as repeated encounters with the Doctor [[Character Development|mellowed him out somewhat]]. In the serial "Battlefield" he had retired and been replaced by Brigadier Winifred Bambera... though when he does show up, he still gets called "Brigadier" far more often than anything else (like, say, Alistair).

* Commodore Ross from ''[[Space: Above and Beyond]]''. His rank is even the naval equivalent of Brigadier.

* Speaking of guys named Ross, Vice Admiral William Ross, a secondary character from ''[[Star Trek: Deep Space Nine]]'' who spent most of his time behind the scenes leading the Federation war effort against the Dominion (which is actually a little bit odd, seeing as Vice Admiral, even in Trek, is only a three-star rank and the equivalent of a Lieutenant General. Ross should have been a Fleet Admiral).
