Alan Lake

Alan Lake (24 November 1940 – 10 October 1984) was an English actor and the third and final husband of screen star Diana Dors.

Diana and Alan worked together in the early 1970s, on stage in plays such as Three Months Gone, for which Dors received her best critical reviews since Yield to the Night.
