from
Bernard Fox was
descended from a long line of British stage
actors; perhaps his most famous forebear was his
uncle, veteran comic actor Wilfred Lawson. Fox
made his screen debut in 1956's Soho
Incident, appearing in several other British
films before he was brought to Hollywood by
actor/producer Danny Thomas in 1963. Generally
cast in stuffy, old-school-tie roles, the
toothbrush-mustached Fox flourished in American
films and TV programs well into the late 1980s.
Bernard Fox is most widely recognized for his TV
work, notably his recurring appearances as
gentleman's gentleman Malcolm Merriweather on The
Andy Griffith Show and wacky warlock Dr.
Bombay on Bewitched;
he also played Dr. Watson opposite Stewart
Granger's Sherlock Holmes in the 1972 TV-movie
adaptation of The
Hound of the Baskervilles. — Hal Erickson |
