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
Sallis then spent three years in repertory theatre before appearing in his first speaking role on the London stage in 1949.[5] Other roles followed in the 1950s and 1960s including Orson Welles' 1955 production of Moby Dick—Rehearsed.[6] 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.[7]
Sallis appeared in the
Television and films
Sallis appeared in more than 100 films and in more than 140 television shows. His first extended television role as Samuel Pepys in the BBC serial of the same name in 1958.[5] He appeared in Danger Man in the episode "Find and Destroy" (1961) as Gordon.[10] He appeared in the BBC Doctor Who story "The Ice Warriors" (1967), playing renegade scientist Elric Penley;[11] and in 1983 was due to play the role of Striker in another Doctor Who serial, "Enlightenment", but had to withdraw.[12]
Sallis appeared as schoolteacher Mr Gladstone in an episode of the first series of
Sallis acted alongside Roger Moore and Tony Curtis in an episode of The Persuaders! ("The Long Goodbye", 1971).[15] He appeared in many British films of the 1960s and 1970s including Saturday Night and Sunday Morning (1960),[16] Doctor in Love (1960), The Curse of the Werewolf (1961),[16] The V.I.P.s (1963),[16] Charlie Bubbles (1967),[16] Scream and Scream Again (1969), Taste the Blood of Dracula, Wuthering Heights (1970),[16] The Incredible Sarah (1976)[16] and Who Is Killing the Great Chefs of Europe? (1978).[17] Additionally in 1968, he was cast as the well-intentioned Coker in a BBC Radio production of John Wyndham's The Day of the Triffids.[18]
Sallis played a priest in the TV film Frankenstein: The True Story (1973), and the following year he played Mr Bonteen in the BBC period drama The Pallisers.[9]
Later career
Sallis was cast in a pilot for Comedy Playhouse which became the first episode of Last of the Summer Wine (retrospectively titled "Of Funerals and Fish", 1973), as the unobtrusive lover of a quiet life, Norman Clegg.[6] The pilot was successful and the BBC commissioned a series. Sallis had already worked on stage with Michael Bates, who played the self-appointed leader Blamire in the first two series. Sallis played the role of Clegg from 1973 to 2010, and was the only cast member to appear in every episode. He also appeared, in 1988, as Clegg's father in First of the Summer Wine,[9] a prequel to Last of the Summer Wine set in 1939.

Autobiography
In 2006, Sallis published an autobiography entitled Fading into the Limelight.[29] As well as his 36 years in Last of the Summer Wine, Sallis also recounts the early era of his relationship with Wallace and Gromit creator Nick Park when it took six years for A Grand Day Out to be completed. He says that his work as Wallace has "raised his standing a few notches in the public eye".[30]
Personal life
Sallis married actress Elaine Usher at St. John's Wood Church in London on 9 February 1957.[31][2][32] However, it was a turbulent relationship, with Usher leaving him sixteen times before they divorced in 1965 on grounds of desertion and adultery.[5] They eventually reconciled and continued to live together until 1999. Sallis remained close to Usher until her death in 2014.[6][33] They had one son, Crispian Sallis (born 1959), who went on to become an Oscar-nominated film set designer.[6] Sallis also had two grandchildren.[6]
Sallis suffered from macular degeneration,[6] and in 2005 recorded an appeal on BBC Radio 4 on behalf of the Macular Society, of which he was a patron.[34] He also recorded on behalf of the society a television appeal, which was broadcast on BBC One on 8 March 2009. Following his diagnosis of the disease, Aardman produced a short animated film for the society.[35]
Sallis was awarded the OBE in the 2007 Birthday Honours for services to Drama.[6] On 17 May 2009, he appeared on the BBC Radio 4 programme Desert Island Discs, selecting Sibelius' Symphony No. 5 in E-flat major as his favourite.[36]

Tributes
Wallace and Gromit creator Nick Park led tributes to Sallis, describing him as a "unique character".[37]
"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."[37]
Shane Allen, BBC controller of comedy commissioning said Sallis would be "fondly remembered for having the most distinctive and well-loved voice in animation".[37]
Tony Hall, Baron Hall of Birkenhead, director general of the BBC, said: "Peter Sallis featured in many of the BBC's most popular programmes.[40]
