Brian Worth (30 July 1914 – 25 August 1978) was an English actor, known for Scrooge (1951), The Man in the White Suit (1951) and An Inspector Calls (1954).^[1]^[2] He died in Seville, Spain on 25 August 1978 aged 64.^[1]

Educated in Britain and America, he learnt the technical side of commercial advertising films before deciding to turn to acting. During the Second World War he served in the armed forces (1941–1946). An officer in the Special Operations Executive, he worked out of Algeria and then Seville, based at the British embassy, escorting agents over the Pyrenees into France, and exfiltrating agents and escaped airmen back to “neutral” Spain.

Between 1946 and 1947 he acted on stage.^[3]^[4]

During the first half of the 1950s, Worth had prominent supporting roles in over a dozen films, including playing the progressive teacher Mr Judd in Tom Brown's Schooldays (1951). From 1956, his roles grew smaller, although his later film appearances did include four for noted director Michael Powell as well as a small role in a James Bond movie, On Her Majesty's Secret Service (1969).

In the 1960s and 1970s, he and his Spanish wife Tere ran a popular Spanish restaurant in a basement in Draycott Avenue, Chelsea.^{[citation needed]}
