Бернард Бресслов

Биография: A RADA scholar who was spotted by Laurence Olivier, Bernard Bresslaw got professional security from the `Carry On` films but was typecast (as TV's The Army Game (1957) had done earlier). He was beginning to extend himself through stage work when, in 1993, just before a performance in `The Taming Of The Shrew` in Regent's Park, London, he had a heart attack and died at the age of 59.
