British stage and screen actor whose characters typically displayed indecision or timidity, usually mild-mannered or naive types who tended to come to a sticky end somewhere along the line. Collings began acting professionally with the Liverpool Repertory Theatre in the early 60s. Though having never attended drama school, he nonetheless segued successfully into television work following the advice of a fellow actor. On screen from 1965, he initially appeared in several prominent cop shows (Z Cars (1962), Softly Softly (1966)) but became ultimately best known for his work in science fiction, often having undergone extensive alien make-up. He was notable as an alien kidnap victim turned into a human bomb in The Psychobombs (1970) and as a 'Vogan' renegade scientist out to destroy (and, of course, expiring in the process) the perennial robotic nemesis in Revenge of the Cybermen. Having enjoyed the experience, he popped up twice more in Doctor Who (1963) instalments: as the driver of a mining vehicle on an extraterrestrial world who suffers from the unfortunate malady 'robophobia' while confronting The Robots of Death and as the titular antagonist (on this occasion playing an immortal, but mutated and disfigured alien scientist) in Mawdryn Undead.
Collings also specialised in period drama, particularly effective as the often mistreated and underpaid clerk Bob Cratchit in Scrooge (1970), the spy John Barsad (aka Solomon Pross) in A Tale of Two Cities (1980), the Russian liberal politician Pavel Nikolayevich Milyukov in Fall of Eagles (1974) and British Tory Prime Minister William Pitt in the miniseries Prince Regent (1979). On stage, he portrayed Lord Stanley in a National Theatre production of Richard III and the King of France in Henry V at the Royal Exchange in Manchester. He provided the voice for Legolas in the BBC 4 radio serial The Lord of the Rings.- Niko Nitai was born on 22 December 1931 in Bucharest, Romania.

Film and theater actor, playwright, theater director and painter born in Bogotá in 1928. Santiago García studied architecture at the National University, the School of Fine Arts in Paris and at the University Institute of Venice. His acting training began in 1957 in Bogotá, with the Japanese director SekiSano; later it continued it in the University of the Prague, in the Actor's Studio of New York and, in 1963, in the University of Theater of the Nations in Vincennes (France). García was one of the founders, in 1958, of El Búho, and later, in 1966, together with artists and intellectuals from the capital, founded the House of Culture, today Teatro La Candelaria, of which he has always been director. He directed the theater group of the National University in Bogotá and the National School of Dramatic Art. He has directed innumerable theatrical productions both in the country and in Cuba, Mexico, the United States and Costa Rica.
He has received various national and international awards, among which is the Ollantay Prize in 1985, for his creative and pedagogical work. From 1983 until now, he directs the permanent theater research and training workshop, and is an executive member of the Colombian Theater Corporation. Santiago García is the author of the works: Dialogue of the search (1981), based on several works by Francisco de Quevedo, especially in called Don Pablos, where, in García's words, he maintained Quevedo's style, especially the satirical and violent spirit of all his work; The montage is inspired by the paintings of the painter El Bosco and the street folklore. He is also the author of Corre, Chasqui Carigueta (1982), based on the tragedy of the end of Ataw Wallpan, written by an anonymous author in the Quechua language in approximately 1555, where García tried his best to respect the original structure of the tragedy, but for above all its spirit of ritual testimony of a culture devastated by the conqueror; Maravilla Estar (1983), and The brawl (1984).
He wrote the texts of the works of collective creation: We the Commons (1972), The Golden City (1973), Guadalupe Years Without Account (1975) The ten days that shook the world, based on the work of the same name, commissioned by members of the Central Union of Workers of Colombia (CSTC). He has published numerous articles in the press and in national and international magazines, and also the book Theory and Practice of Theater (1983), where he records his conception of different aspects of theater. In the first stage of his theatrical work, García ventured into the theater of European absurdity and in formal aspects in works from the classical repertoire. In 1965, under the influence of Bertold Brecht, he staged his work Galileo Galilei with the theater group of the National University, of which he was director.
Thereafter, he adapted Brechtian theories and has continued to develop them with La Candelaria. García's work is linked to the La Candelaria group either as an actor, director, individual author or works of collective creation, which must be seen within the perspective of the Colombian New Theater movement, with its own searches and theatrical language and characteristics. La Candelaria's method of collective creation is distinguished from that of the Experimental Theater of Cali (TEC), directed by Enrique Buenaventura, since García, in addition to Brechtian theories, is influenced by structuralist linguists, theorists of textual analysis.
In March 2012, he was declared a World Theater Ambassador by Unesco's International Theater Institute (ITI).- Konstantin Vasilyev was born on 3 January 1933 in Leningrad, USSR. He was an actor, known for Thawed Carp (2017) and I vot prishyol Bumbo... (1985). He died on 23 March 2020.
