MINI BIO:

Round-faced and pushy-looking, Terence Alexander started a regular film career in the 1950s, usually appearing in light roles -- as smooth, upper-class charmers, beguiling rogues or amiable oafs. He was a natural for a part in The League of Gentlemen -- and it was probably his best film role.
