http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_Simmons_%28actor%29\n\nRichard Simmons (August 19, 1913 – January 11, 2003), also known as Dick Simmons, was an American actor.\n\nBorn in St. Paul, Minnesota, he was best know for his role in the 1950s]] television series Sergeant Preston of the Yukon. He appeared in many films, often uncredited, from the 1930s on. He died from Alzheimer's disease.

Les Dennis started off as padding on the "Russ Abbott Laughter Show" (yes, just as lame as it sounds). He broke into the mainstream with a comedy partner called Dustin Gee, and they were very popular. Then Gee died, leaving Dennis one half of a double act. The Mavis Riley impersonation was one of his better set pieces from the double act days, and it became a kind of party trick he could use for instant recognition. Against all the odds, he parlayed his patter into a gig as the host of the Family Fortunes quiz and married an actress who was "the next big thing" in TV. Her next big thing turned out to be another man, and Dennis became, briefly, the most famous cuckold in Britain. He's gone on to do Celebrity Big Brother, nearly having a breakdown live on TV, some serious acting work and whatever else he can do to keep his career active. I don't particularly like his work, but I respect a man who can dust himself down so often and try and get through.

Don't remember it being mentioned anywhere ...\n\nBut his accent seems to be loosely modelled on Cary Grant's (no, seriously - listen to it) ...\n\n... so I'd have to guess Southern England.

In addition to the other answer, there was also Paul McGann in 1996, and of course, Christopher Eccleston (2005) and David Tennant (2005-????). On film there was Peter Cushing (1965-66) but the character he played was an Earth scientist called Doctor Who so not the same character as the TV show. There have also been versions on stage, most famously as Trevor Martin (1975 - I think) and Jon Pertwee and Colin Baker reprised their roles in 1989, with some performances by understudy David Banks, who also played the Cyberleader in the TV series.\n\nThere are many more unofficial Doctors, e.g. Rowan Atkinson, Hugh Grant, Edmund Warwick, Terry Walsh, but to list them all would take up a lot of space!!!

Well it can't be Elvis, because he was born in 97 which would make Wells like 10 yrs old......obviously not. It can very well be Andre Dimera who was supposed to die twice before 95. When he was on the show he was played by the actor that plays Tony Dimera. I think I'm right!!!!

He was in a film called Stump Run in 1959.  There is no plot summary in my source so I dont know if it is what you are looking for.

Yeah, I like him. I couldn't imagine That 70's Show being the same without him. He has a great way of acting in comedies, and he did pretty good in Traffic too. I'd like to see even more serious roles by him though.

During the time his show was done in (1950's I think), and the fact that it was in the south, I would have to say he was a Democrat. They pretty much ran the south during that time period.

George Reeves - Actor  1914-1959 \n    \nGeorge Keefer Brewer was born in Woolstock, Iowa on January 5, 1914.   Probably best known for his acting career in the hit Superman TV series during the 1950's George was a well accomplished film and play actor as well.   He starred in numerous leading and supporting roles in a variety of famous films dating back to 1939 including the blockbuster "Gone with the Wind" where he portrayed one of Scarlet's suitors.\n\nGeorge Reeves was 45 years old in 1959 when he was found dead in his home from a single gun shot.   Many people speculate that he was murdered but his death was ruled a suicide predicated on the fact that he was in a deep depression state due to his inability to find acting work because he was typecast as superman.  I personally do not believe that he took his own life, this man was strong willed, full of life and had everything to live for.\nThe circumstances of his mysterious death and the investigation that followed left many unanswered questions and speculation.  \n\nOn the evening of his death, George was entertaining his girlfriend and a few friends in his lavish Hollywood home when he reportedly went upstairs by himself to his bedroom.   After about a half hour the guests heard a single gun shot and found George lying dead on his back across the side of the bed with his feet still on the floor.   George was killed instantly my a German Luger pistol bullet that went through his skull and lodged in the wall above his bed near the ceiling.   The shell casing from the bullet was found after the police picked him up, he had been laying on it.   It is still unknown as to how the casing got there and how George could of been lying on the shell casing if he would have taken his own life.   No suicide note was found, and there was never the slightest indication from George that he might be in a depressed state.   This is one of those mysteries that we may never find out the real truth.
