Life and career

[edit | edit source]

Philip John Guard was born in Rochford, Essex, on 29 November 1928.

Guard appeared occasionally in film and television, but has been more prolific on stage.[2][3]

In 1956, he married the actress Charlotte Mitchell; they separated in 1968. Their sons are the actors Christopher Guard and Dominic Guard, and daughter Candy Guard, a writer and animator.[4]

Guard appeared, unwittingly, alongside Mark Dignam and John Bryning, on the fade-out of The Beatles' song "I Am the Walrus," on which a 1967 BBC radio broadcast of King Lear can be heard with Guard playing "Edgar."[5]

Guard died in May 2024, at the age of 95.[6]
