David Prowse

David Prowse MBE (born 1 July 1935 in Bristol, England; died 28 November 2020 in London, England) was a retired English bodybuilder, weightlifter and character actor in film and television. He was best known for physically portraying Darth Vader in the original Star Wars trilogy (1977-1983) with the character's voice being performed by James Earl Jones. I also knew him for his role as F. Alexander's bodyguard Julian in Stanley Kubrick's A Clockwork Orange (1971).

I met David at Collectormania Glasgow in August 2009.
