Anthony Carrick

[Tigon Man]

Watching one of the Hammer tellies The Silent Scream a days back I spotted Anthony Carrick in a familar role as a plainclothes policeman.



Born c 1932, this tall balding character actor with (if he doesn't mind me saying so) a prominent proboscis, has been a well known face (if not name) generally in very small roles for more than forty years. Mostly on telly, he has appeared in around fifteen films as well. Usually Anthony can be seen as businessmen, lawyers and senior policemen, but could be spotted being equally effective as a pilot in Shoestring or a satanist in Inspector Morse: Day of the Devil.



Another great unsung character actor.

I also remember Anthony for his role in 'The Living Daylights'.

Is it Anthony or Antony?



He inevitably turned up in DOCTOR WHO too, as the nasty turncoat Captain Rossini in "The Masque of Mandragora" (1976).



I sometimes get him mixed up with Roger Brierley.
