Trivia:
British actor Peter Jeffrey was a veteran of nearly two decades on stage when he started appearing in films in the early 1960s. Jeffrey was billed last as one of King Henry's murderous barons in 1964's Becket. He had moved to the middle of the cast list by 1972, when he appeared as Inspector Trout in The Abominable Dr. Phibes, a role he repeated in 1973's Dr. Phibes Rises Again. Though seldom cited by the critics for his efforts, Peter Jeffrey is a stalwart member of the "authority figure" ranks in British films.
