MINI BIO:
British comic character and television satirist, from the Theatre Workshop. Although his performances seemed rather unvarying, his timing was under-valued and, with the right director, he could be consistently funny. Several of his TV series, too, were considerable personal successes. Married to former actress Carmel Cryan, he died following a fall from a horse while filming The Return of the Musketeers.

[about Professor Foot] It's more than my job's worth to stop him when he's like this. He's out to rule the world... if he can get a government grant.
Algernon: [fumbling with wires and plugs] I'm better with animals than plugs and transistors... they trust me!... I should've gone into vivisection.
Professor Foot: Voltage, VOLTAGE! Up up. Up up
Paul: Up, up.
John: Up
Ringo: Are you sure I'm earthed?
