TODAY we are marking the passing of that fine English character actor
NIGEL GREEN . . . Green left us at only 47 years of age, with a very
impressive career already at that point. In our banner can be seen on the far right, in a little get together on
the set of the cast of Amicus films THE SKULL (1965) with Peter, Patrick
Wymark far left, Patrick Magee sat down on the right. Green had a small
role of Inspector Wilson, in the film. Because of his strapping build and commanding height,
(6 feet, 1 inch) & regimental demeanour he would often be found
playing military types and men of action, in films such as Jason and the
Argonauts, Zulu, Tobruk and The Ipcress File.
HIS LARGE physique also led to his being cast as Little John in Hammer
films THE SWORD OF SHERWOOD FOREST (1960), with Peter Cushing. Green also appeared in a number of horror films including Corridors of
Blood (1958), The Masque of the Red Death (1964), as the father of Jane
Asher's character, The Skull (1965) also with Cushing Let's Kill Uncle
(1966) and COUNTESS DRACULA (1971).
