Biography
Leslie Samuel Phillips CBE (20 April 1924 – 7 November 2022) was an English actor, director, producer and author.

He appeared in the Carry On and Doctor in the House film series as well as the long-running BBC radio comedy series The Navy Lark. In his later career, Phillips took on dramatic parts including a BAFTA-nominated role alongside Peter O'Toole in Venus (2006).
