George Arthur Woodbridge (16 February 1907 – 31 March 1973) was an English actor who appeared in films, television, and theatre ranging from the 1930s to the 1970s.

[1][2] Woodbridge's ruddy-cheeked complexion and West Country accent meant he often played publicans, policemen or yokels, most prominently in horror and comedy films alongside Christopher Lee and Peter Cushing.

[4] Woodbridge became a Chief Steward in the Merchant Navy before becoming an actor, first appearing on the London stage in 1928.

[6][2] His jovial manner lent itself to comedy films as well, including An Alligator Named Daisy (1955), Three Men in a Boat (1956), Two-Way Stretch (1960), Raising the Wind (1961), What a Carve Up!

[9] He gained popularity late in his career as the titular puppet-maker in the children's TV show Inigo Pipkin.
