Leslie Randall (actor)

Leslie Randall (born 19 October 1924 in South Shields, County Durham) is an English film and television actor who has worked in both Britain and America.

Randall had a lengthy career, but possibly his most important role was with his wife in Joan and Leslie, ITV's first home-grown situation comedy.[1] He also appeared in the 1963 film version of Billy Liar where he played Danny Boon, and as Reggie Wilkie in episodes of Emmerdale, 1999–2000, as well as episodes of The Monkees, and I Dream of Jeannie.

His wife was Joan Reynolds, whom he met when they were both in repertory theatre in Darlington from 1948 to 1951. He married her in 1951, having two children, Susan and David, and they later divorced in 1978. She died in May 2011.[1]
