Will Hay
William Thomson "Will" Hay (6 December 1888 – 18 April 1949) was an English comedian, who achieved fame through his theatrical sketch as a joke-schoolmaster, which he took on world tours. He moved on to films, some of them continuing the schoolmaster theme, in which he also featured as a writer and director. In ''The Goose Steps Out'' (1942), his brand of humour was adapted for war propaganda. Hay was also a keen amateur astronomer, who built his own observatory. ==Early life== Hay was born William Thomson Hay at 23 Durham Street in Stockton-on-Tees, County Durham, England, to William Robert Hay (1851–1920) and his wife Elizabeth (born 1859) (née Ebden) who married on 31 May 1883. Hay had one brother, Harold Gordon and three sisters, Evelyn Jane, Lizzie and Annie. When Hay was less than a year old the family moved to Suffolk.〔1891 UK census: RG12/1494 f.56 p.47 & p.48 – 192 Clapham Road, Lowestoft, Suffolk〕〔GRO Register of Births: MAR 1889 10a 49 STOCKTON – William Thomson Hay〕
