Mervyn Johns

Biography:
Father of actress Glynis Johns, who appeared with him in The Halfway House (1944) and The Sundowners (1960). Stocky, benevolent-looking Welsh character who became an  unexpected star of British movies during WWII, then moved quickly into  post-war supports, with one of his fondly-remembered parts being that of  the cowering "Bob Cratchit" to Alastair Sim's cold-hearted "Ebenezer Scrooge" in the definitive film version of A Christmas Carol (1951).
