	Actors - Willoughby Gray

Willoughby Gray (5 November 1916 - 13 February 1993) is a British actor of stage and screen born in Germany (though several sources suggest he was born in Aberdeen, Scotland).

He achieved popularity in the mid 1950's after making 38 appearances on the television series The Adventures of Robin Hood. He appeared as 'Pete' in Harold Pinter's The Birthday Party on it's very first run in 1958, this being just one of countless stage performances he made. Though over-shadowed by his stage career, he made a handful of incredibly popular films. Notably The Mummy (1959), the James Bond film A View to a Kill
(1985) as an insane former Nazi professor, and The Princess Bride (1987). In the late 1980s, he appeared in the BBC drama Howards' Way as banker Sir John Stevens.

He died aged 76 in 1993. He was married to Felicity Gray, a choreographer and giver of talks on ballet, and who notably taught Gene Tierney for her role in Never Let Me Go.
