"
Terry-Thomas was a male film actor and comedian who worked as a character actor.
Born in 1911, he pursued a career in film, operating in the overlapping territory between comedy and character performance. His identification as both a comedian and a character actor placed him within a particular mode of screen work, one in which comic sensibility and the inhabiting of distinct roles went hand in hand.
He died in 1990. The dual designation that defined his professional identity — film actor and comedian, with character acting at the center — remained the consistent marker of his work across his career.
