William Hubert Fox TD (26 January 1911 – 20 September 2008) was a British character actor and writer. Fox enjoyed early success on the stage playing juvenile roles. After a six-year interruption for military service in World War II, his acting career did not reach the heights of his early years. == Early life == Fox was born in Manila in the Philippines, the son of a successful trader who operated across the South China Sea. His parents travelled extensively and whilst still an infant he had visited Madrid, Paris and London. In 1916 Fox was sent to preparatory school, then attended Haileybury public school. He was expected to go on to Oxford University and thence into the petroleum industry; this was not to be. Fox read an advertisement in ''The Times'' inviting people to audition for the Central School of Speech and Drama founded by Elsie Fogerty. He won a scholarship but since he was from a wealthy family, the scholarship was only given on the condition that the money be passed on to the next person on the list. Fox's father agreed to fund Fox's studies only on the basis that Fox would complete what was normally a two-year course in a single year. He achieved this, and was awarded the school's gold medal upon graduating.〔〔
