Bernard Bresslaw (25 February 1934 — 11 June 1993) was an English comic actor and singer, mostly known for his appearances in the popular Carry On film series. He first became interested in acting after he visited the Hackney Empire in London and was also encouraged to study a course in it by his primary school teacher.
