Ivor Dean
Biography
Ivor Dean was a British actor who worked on stage, film and television. Born in London, he often played weary police officers and butlers. His best known part was Chief Inspector Claud Eustace Teal in The Saint, which he played for nearly the whole of the 1960s series with Roger Moore, after the producers spotted him in a different role in an early episode. He played a comparable inspector, Large, in Randall and Hopkirk (Deceased) from 1968 to 1969. On television he also had one-off roles in ITC shows like Jason King and The Persuaders!, and he was in three episodes of The Avengers. He played a butler in Doctor at Large and, in 1964, appeared in Coronation Street. In 1966 he was Long John Silver in the Franco-German Treasure Island adaptation Die Schatzinsel. His film work included Theatre of Death (1967) and a segment of The Magnificent Seven Deadly Sins called Pride.
