Anthony Dawson (1916-1992) was a Scottish actor who was famous for playing a James Bond villain, Professor Dent in Dr. No (film).

He went on to play the role of Ernst Stavro Blofeld in From Russia with Love (film) and Thunderball (film), where his face was unseen and his voice was dubbed by Eric Pohlmann.

Bond Involvement[]

In the early 1960s, Dawson returned from the US to the UK and won a role in James Bond's first on-screen adventure, Dr. No. He played the suspicious Professor Dent. The film was again directed by Terence Young and the following year - despite his character's death - Dawson was welcomed back to the Bond productions to lend his figure (but not his face) to the still-unknown Number One of SPECTRE. He would play the character that would come to be known as Blofeld in both From Russia with Love and Thunderball.

Dawson also appeared in the James Bond parody, starring Connery's younger brother Neil, O.K. Connery in 1967.
