A Polish-born actor, born Isaac Bluthal, who built a six-decade career spanning Australia, Britain, and the United States, becoming a fixture of British comedy through his work with Spike Milligan and his role as Manny Cohen in Never Mind the Quality, Feel the Width. Later generations knew him as the bumbling Frank Pickle in The Vicar of Dibley, and at 85 he played philosopher Herbert Marcuse in the Coen brothers' Hail, Caesar!
