Anthony Holles and Naunton Wayne

Does anybody remember these two performers? What are your faves amongst their performance?



Also does anybody know how they died? Holles especially was young - only in his late forties

Any particular reason why you ask about both in the same message? Did they ever work together?

Yes, Naunton Wayne is usually associated with Basil Radford as Charters and Caldicott!

According to IMDB they never worked together in film. Holles never worked in film with Fat Baz either.

Why the curiosity about the cause of death of so many character actors? Are you compiling a website on the subject?



Naunton Wayne's best performance sans Baz, IMO, is in the excellent A Girl Must Live in which he plays a conman/pickpocket and which is worth the price of admission just for his drunk act.

Does anybody know what Wayne was up to in the 60s? There seems a gap between his final film (61) and tv work (69). Treading the boards or back on radio?

He did a lot of stage work and played a lot of golf I think...
