Peter Bull

1912 – 1984 · London, England, UK · Active 1936–2000

Peter Bull, born in 1912, was a British character actor known for his distinctive presence in cult cinema. He appeared in The 3 Worlds of Gulliver (1960), where his performance added depth to the whimsical narrative, and in Tom Jones (1963), where he brought his unique flair to the comedic adaptation of Henry Fielding's novel. In The Intelligence Men (1965), Bull showcased his versatility, while his later work in Rosie Dixon - Night Nurse (1978) cemented his status in the realm of British exploitation films. His contributions to these films highlight the charm and eccentricity that define cult cinema.
