Early life
[edit]Anthony Samuel Selby was born in Chelsea,[1] London, England on 26 February 1938,[2][3][4] as the younger child to Samuel Joseph Selby (1908–1968),[5][6] a taxi driver,[7][8] and his wife,[9] Annie Elizabeth (née Weaver; 1909–1998),[10][11] a seamstress and waitress.[7] He had an elder sister, Kathleen Vera Keegan[12] (née Selby; 1932–2009).[13][14]
Selby was brought up on the Pimlico Peabody estate.[15] He came from a family of taxi drivers and musical theatre performers. His father drove a black cab and was known as "taxi Sam".[16] He performed in public for the first time at the age of seven, as Al Jolson, to sing for wounded wartime soldiers in London hospitals.[1] He credited his start in showbiz to his maternal aunt,[17] Helen "Nellie" Bone[18] (née Weaver; 1926–1988).[19][20]
Selby trained in acting and dramatics[21] at the Italia Conti Stage School for six years from the age of 10.[22][23] He attended Buckingham Gate School in Victoria, a section of the City of Westminster,[24][25][26] where he gained his School Certificate.[27]
Career
[edit]Selby made his professional debut in 1949, on stage, playing Curly in the annual production of Peter Pan at the Scala Theatre in Charlotte Street, Fitzrovia.[15] He appeared in numerous theatre productions.[28][29] He had worked with Joan Littlewood's Theatre Workshop.[1][16]
Selby made his television debut at the age of 13, as a child actor, with the role of Pig in the television film, Mencius Was a Bad Boy (1951).[22] He was billed as Anthony Selby until 1964.[30]
Selby appeared in various uncredited film roles, including; John and Julie (1955), Alfie (1966) and Carry On Loving (1970), before making his credited debut in 1961, with the role of Kishu in the military drama, The Queen's Guards.[31] His film credits included; Witchfinder General (1968),[32] Villain (1971),[33] Adolf Hitler: My Part in His Downfall (1973),[34] If You Go Down in the Woods Today (1981),[35] and Loop (1997).[36]
Selby appeared in many episodic television programmes, including; The Explorer (1955), King of the River (1966), The Avengers (1968), Callan (1972), Black and Blue (1973), The Sweeney (1975), Two's Company (1975), Bergerac (1984), Duty Free (1986), Lovejoy (1991), Renford Rejects (1998), Holby City (1999), Mike and Angelo (2000), and Rose and Maloney (2005).[37][36]
Selby played Fred in Edward Bond's controversial play Saved, at the Royal Court Theatre, in Sloane Square, in 1965, having joined the English Stage Company. Cameron Cobbold, 1st Baron Cobbold, then Lord Chamberlain, was appalled by Saved and refused to grant it a license, so William Gaskill showed it to a private audience under "club conditions".[38][39]
Selby frequently worked with Ken Loach.[15] In 1965, he played Danny Lee, a convict under sentence of death, in Three Clear Sundays, one of Loach's earlier productions for the BBC anthology series The Wednesday Play. Three Clear Sundays dealt with capital punishment and was broadcast to 11 million viewers at a time when the debate was at a height in the United Kingdom.[40][41] His first television role for Loach came as a singer in Catherine (1964), an episode of Telecast. He was cast in Loach's kitchen sink drama film Poor Cow (1967).[1]
Selby often appeared in television advertisements.[42]
Selby portrayed Sam Maxstead for the first two runs of the ITV fantasy children's television series Ace of Wands from 1970 to 1971.[43]
Selby portrayed Peter Triman in the comedy drama film, Nobody Ordered Love, directed by Robert Hartford-Davis. The film was released on 5 November 1972 and focused on the events after film director Paul Medbury (John Ronane) attempts to replace Alice Allison (Ingrid Pitt), the alcoholic star of his new First World War movie entitled The Somme, with up-and-coming starlet Caroline Johnson (Judy Huxtable), a series of tragic events begins to unfold.[44] According to the British Film Institute (BFI), which holds an annotated shooting script in its collection, Nobody Ordered Love is considered a lost film and is on its 75 Most Wanted list. Kevin Lyons of the BFI National Library Filmographic Unit writes: "Rank released Nobody Ordered Love in 1972 and it certainly played the New Victoria in London, regular home to low-budget exploitation fare. Star Ingrid Pitt has suggested – in an interview with the Celluloid Slammer blog as well as in one of her on-going series of columns for the Den of Geek website that Hartford-Davis had a falling out with Rank over the lack of promotion they were giving the film and stormed off with the prints, decamping to the States, where he continued to work. After his death, Pitt claims, his widow arranged for his belongings to be disposed of and the cans of film were among those items thrown out."[45]
Selby portrayed Corporal Percy Marsh[46] in the ITV sitcom Get Some In! from 1975 to 1978. The series focused on National Service life in the Royal Air Force.[47] The series was written by [John] Esmonde and [Bob] Larbey, with Selby in mind. Get Some In! regularly attracted 15 million viewers and was one of a number of shows from that decade to have never been repeated.[15]

Selby was a lyricist.[53] He wrote songs with the jazz pianist Tony Lee. In 1995, Lee said "We've written one for Tony Bennett, but have yet to persuade him to record it,".[54]
Selby played Ben Rumson in the 1996 revival of the Broadway musical comedy, Paint Your Wagon, at Regent's Park Open Air Theatre. His role earned him a 1997 Laurence Olivier Award nomination for best supporting performance in a musical.[55][1][56][57]
Selby portrayed Clive Mitchell, a member of the Mitchell family, in the BBC One soap opera EastEnders. He appeared in two episodes during early October 2002, and was credited as Uncle Clive.[58] His character was mentioned a handful of times during the 1990s, and was briefly mentioned in 2003.[59]
