Actor

The Resume

    (May 11, 1927-December 14, 2016)
    Born in Port Talbot, Wales, United Kingdom
    Best remembered as Dr. Bombay on the TV series 'Bewitched ' (1967-72)
    Also portrayed Malcolm Merriweather on 'The Andy Griffith Show' (1963-65) and Col. Crittendon on 'Hogan's Heroes' (1965-70)
    Acted in 'A Night to Remember (1958),' 'The Longest Day (1962),' 'Honeymoon Hotel (1964),' 'Strange Bedfellows (1965),' 'Big Jake (1971),' 'The Rescuers (1977-voice),' 'Herbie Goes to Monte Carlo (1977),' 'Yellowbeard (1983),' '18 Again! (1988),' 'Titanic (1997)' and 'The Mummy (1999)'

Why he might be annoying:

    He shares a name with an Army Council member of the Irish Republican Army who has spent over 20 years in prison.
    Though he said the immortal line 'Iceberg dead ahead, sir!' in the 1958 Titanic movie 'A Night to Remember,' he went uncredited in the role.
    In a corny spoof of his Dr. Bombay character, he showed up as a genie (Dr. Jinga-Janga, a 'wish' doctor) on Pee-Wee's Playhouse.
    He's milked his Dr. Bombay character twice after Bewitched ended, on 'Tabitha' (1977) and 'Passions' (1999-2000).

Why he might not be annoying:

    He's a fifth generation actor who can trace his roots to the 1700s and debuted on stage at 18 months.
    He served with the British Royal Navy during World War II.
    Of the two Titanic movies he's acted in, he calls 'A Night to Remember' the best Titanic movie ever made.
    In six decades of TV work, he's guested in over 100 episodes, from 'The Flintstones' to 'The Monkees' to 'M*A*S*H' to ' Punky Brewster.'
