Roy Dotrice has passed away.
Born on May 26 1923, Roy Dotrice had appeared in the Babylon 5 episode The Fall of Night playing Frederick Lantz.
Dotrice’s long acting career also saw him in Angel when he appeared in Lineage playing Roger Wyndam-Price, the father of one of the series’ principal characters Wesley Wyndam-Price (Alexis Denisof).
Long before his Angel guest stint, he was in the same vein with his regular role as Father in Beauty and the Beast (1987-90).
Other work included The Heroes of Telemark, The Rivals of Sherlock Holmes as one of the said Rivals Simon Carne in The Duchess of Wiltshire’s Diamonds, Nicholas and Alexandra, Space: 1999, Saturn 3, Cheech & Chong’s The Corsican Brothers, The A-Team, Earth 2, Batman: The Animated Series, Mr & Mrs Smith TV series, Spider-Man 1997 animated series, Hercules: The Legendary Journey as Hercules’ father Zeus, Sliders, Hellboy II: The Golden Army & Game of Thrones.
He died on October 16 2017 at the age of 94. It was around this same time that I had finished seeing him as Father in Beauty and the Beast as I had finished seeing the series although at the time of writing I am still looking over special features from the DVD release.
