Brian Pettifer:
This mouse-faced Scottish actor, usually cast as downtrodden and put-upon - is probably best known for his TV work in 'Get
Some In', 'Hamish Macbeth' and as the timid 'Andra' in 'Rab C Nesbitt'. He was also in 'If' (1968), 'O
Lucky Man' (1973) and 'Britannia Hospital' (1981) playing a character called Biles in
all three. You might also remember him in 'Timeslip' or struggling with a scouse accent in 'The Liver
Birds' if you are over 40.
More recently, he was excellent playing the timid would-be magician Mr Honeyfeather in the BBC adaptation of 'Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell'.
