}} Valentine Dyall (7 May 1908 – 24 June 1985), the son of veteran actor Franklin Dyall and his first wife Mary Phyllis Dyall (née Logan), was an English character actor. His very distinctive sepulchral voice made him especially popular as a voice actor and he was known for many years as "The Man in Black", the narrator of the BBC Radio horror series ''Appointment with Fear''. == 1930s to 1950s == In 1934, Dyall appeared with his father at the Manchester Hippodrome in Sir Oswald Stoll's presentation of Shakespeare's ''Henry V'', playing the roles of the Archbishop of Canterbury, Captain Gower and a cardinal of France. He also appeared in one movie with his father, the 1943 spy thriller ''Yellow Canary'' starring Anna Neagle and Richard Greene; Dyall's part was that of a German U-boat commander attempting to kidnap a British agent from a ship in the Atlantic, while his father played the ship's captain. In the same year, he played a small role as a German officer in ''The Life and Death of Colonel Blimp'' and, the following year, played the Duke of Burgundy in Laurence Olivier's 1944 film rendition of ''Henry V''. In 1946, he appeared, uncredited, as the character Stephen Lynn in the romantic film drama ''Brief Encounter''; Lynn is protagonist Alec Harvey's friend whose unexpected arrival spoils Alec's opportunity of consummating his romance. During the 1950s, Dyall made a number of guest appearances in episodes of the BBC Home Service radio comedy series ''The Goon Show'', parodying his familiar radio persona. In "The Canal", for example, he plays, "due to very cheap dry cleaners", "The Man in Grey". Much later, he featured in the radio version of ''The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy'', playing Gargravarr. In the TV and LP versions, he voiced the computer Deep Thought. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Valentine Dyall」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
