From RBKC document: "Allister Bowtell died on 20 September 2006 and was given a splendid send off nine days later, organised by his friends from the Vesta Rowing Club and Chelsea Arts Club. He was a sculpture student at Chelsea Art School from 1961 to 1965 and then went on to teach at the Wimbledon School of Art and the London School of Printing. In the mid-1970s he became a model maker and his most notable commission was creating robots for the 1974/75 season of Dr Who. Bowtell later specialised in figurative and portrait work and undertook many public commissions."
