Walter Randall (26 June 1919 – 5 May 2008) was a British dancer turned actor with numerous roles in British television, including parts in The Saint, Out of This World, Yes Minister, The Professionals and Dixon of Dock Green.[1] His film appearances included roles in The Hand (1960) and Tiffany Jones (1973).[2]

He appeared in the Doctor Who story The Aztecs in 1964, and was interviewed for the DVD release in 2002.[3] Five further appearances on the programme followed, the last of which was Planet of the Spiders in 1974.[1] In their positive review of The Crusade, the Radio Times wrote "Walter Randall's El Akir is the most sinister character in the series to date."[4]

In addition to acting, Randall ran a restaurant in Chelsea.[5] He later ran a wine bar and went into partnership with Jon Pertwee, running a hamburger diner called Pertwee's Take-Away for five years.[6]
