Early life
Peter John Sallis[3] was born on 1 February 1921 in Twickenham, Middlesex (now in Greater London), the only child of bank manager Harry Sallis (1889–1964) and Dorothy Amea Frances (née Barnard; 1891–1975).[4][5] After attending Minchenden Grammar School in Southgate, also in Middlesex (also now Greater London), Sallis went to work in a bank, working on shipping transactions. After the outbreak of the Second World War, he joined the Royal Air Force. He was unable to serve as aircrew because of a serum albumin disorder and was told he might black out at high altitudes.[6][better source needed] He became a wireless mechanic instead and went on to teach radio procedures at RAF Cranwell.[1]
Early career
Theatre work
Sallis began his career as an amateur actor during his four years with the RAF when one of his students offered him the lead in an amateur production of Noël Coward's Hay Fever.[7] After his success in the role, he resolved to become an actor after the war, winning a Korda scholarship and training at the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art. He made his first professional appearance on the London stage in September 1946 in a walk-on part in Richard Brinsley Sheridan's The Scheming Lieutenant (1775).[1]
Sallis then spent three years in repertory theatre before appearing in his first speaking role on the London stage in 1949.[1] Other roles followed in the 1950s and 1960s including Orson Welles' 1955 production of Moby Dick—Rehearsed.[7] In his autobiography, Fading into the Limelight, Sallis recounts a later meeting with Welles where he received a mysterious telephone call summoning him to the deserted Gare d'Orsay in Paris where Welles announced he wanted him to dub Hungarian bit-players in his cinema adaptation of Franz Kafka's The Trial (1962). Sallis wrote that "the episode was Kafka-esque, to coin a phrase". Later, he was in the first West End production of Cabaret in 1968 opposite Judi Dench.[8]
Sallis appeared in the Hal Prince-produced musical She Loves Me in 1963.[9] Though not a success it led to him making his Broadway debut the following year. Prince was producer of a musical based on the work of Arthur Conan Doyle's Sherlock Holmes called Baker Street. Sallis was asked by Prince to take the role of Dr. Watson to Fritz Weaver's Sherlock Holmes. The show ran for six months on Broadway.[9] Just before Baker Street ended he was offered the role of Wally in John Osborne's Inadmissible Evidence, which had been played by Arthur Lowe in London with Nicol Williamson reprising the lead role. The production was troubled with Williamson hitting producer David Merrick with a bottle and walking out before being persuaded to continue. The show was a minor success and ran for six months in New York, opening at the Belasco Theater before transferring to the Shubert Theater.[9] Sallis reprised his role in the 1968 film adaptation.[10]

Personal life
Sallis married actress Elaine Usher at St. John's Wood Church in London on 9 February 1957.[39][4][40] However, it was a turbulent relationship, with Usher leaving him sixteen times before they divorced in 1965 on grounds of desertion and adultery.[1] They eventually reconciled and continued to live together until 1999.

Tributes
Wallace and Gromit creator Nick Park led tributes to Sallis, describing him as a "unique character".[2]
"I'm so sad, but feel so grateful and privileged to have known and worked with Peter over so many years. He was always my first and only choice for Wallace," Park said in a statement. "Working with him was always a delight and I will miss his wry, unpredictable humour and silliness - that started the moment he greeted you at the door, and didn't stop when the mic was switched off." Park added: "Peter had naturally funny bones and was a great storyteller and raconteur off stage too and would keep us amused for hours."[2]
Shane Allen, BBC controller of comedy commissioning said Sallis would be "fondly remembered for having the most distinctive and well-loved voice in animation".[2]
Tony Hall, Baron Hall of Birkenhead, director general of the BBC, said: "Peter Sallis featured in many of the BBC's most popular programmes. He was a marvellous actor - who could forget that remarkable voice?"[48]
