William Squire
William Squire (29 April 1916, Neath - 3 May 1989) was a Welsh actor of film and television. Some of his varied roles included Thomas More in the 1969 film version of Maxwell Anderson's play Anne of the Thousand Days, Sir Daniel Brackley in the 1972 television adaptation of Robert Louis Stevenson's The Black Arrow, the voice of Gandalf in the 1978 animated version of The Lord of the Rings and the Shadow in the 1979 Doctor Who serial The Armageddon Factor, though perhaps his best-known role was as the superior of secret agent David Callan in the spy series Callan in the early 1970's. William Squire replaced Richard Burton as King Arthur in Camelot on Broadway at the Majestic Theatre.
In a set of Encyclopaedia Britannica-produced educational films about William Shakespeare's Macbeth, Squire played the role of Macbeth.
