Roger Anthony Lloyd-Pack (8 February 1944 – 16 January 2014) was an English actor. He is best known for playing Trigger in Only Fools and Horses from 1981 to 2003, and Owen Newitt in The Vicar of Dibley from 1994 to 2007. He later starred as Tom in The Old Guys with Clive Swift. He is also well known for the role of Barty Crouch Sr. in Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire and for his appearances in Doctor Who as John Lumic in the episodes "Rise of the Cybermen" and "The Age of Steel". He was sometimes credited without the hyphen in his surname. He died in 2014 from pancreatic cancer.




Early life


Lloyd-Pack was born in 1944 in Islington, London, the son of actor Charles Lloyd-Pack (1902–1983) and Ulrike Elisabeth (née Pulay, 1921–2000), an Austrian Jewish refugee who worked as a travel agent. His uncle was George Pulay, one of the secret listeners to German POW in Trent Park during World War II. He attended Bedales School near Petersfield in Hampshire, where he achieved A Level passes in English, French and Latin. He subsequently trained at the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art (RADA), graduating in 1965 with an Acting (RADA Diploma).




Career


Lloyd-Pack began his acting career at Northampton's Royal Theatre, making his stage debut in the Thomas Dekker play The Shoemaker's Holiday.
He featured on an episode of The Professionals (Long Shot 1978) as a terrorist hitman.

On British television, he was best known for portraying "Trigger", Del Boy's slow-witted “Village idiot” friend in the BBC sitcom Only Fools and Horses, from 1981 to 2003.
Lloyd-Pack was cast by pure chance: an Only Fools and Horses executive producer, Ray Butt, hired him to portray the character Trigger after seeing him in a stage play, and had only attended that play to observe potential Del Boy actor Billy Murray.

He was also known for his role in The Vicar of Dibley as Owen Newitt and to international audiences for his performance as Barty Crouch, Sr. in the film Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire. In addition, he had a semi-regular role during the 1990s as the plumber Jake "The Klingon" Klinger, Ben Porter's arch-rival, in the sitcom 2point4 Children.
In 2005, he appeared in the second series of ITV's Doc Martin as a farmer who held a grudge against Doctor Ellingham for what he believed was the malpractice-related death of his wife. In 2006, he played John Lumic and provided the voice of the Cyber-Controller in two episodes of Doctor Who, "Rise of the Cybermen" and "The Age of Steel", opposite David Tennant, who had played his son in the same Harry Potter film. Lloyd-Pack's final TV appearance was in Law & Order: UK as Alex Greene.
He voiced the pre-match build-up montage video shown ahead of all Tottenham Hotspur's home matches which is still played today.
In June 2008, he appeared as a guest on the BBC's The Politics Show, arguing the case for better-integrated public transport (specifically railways), and, in January 2012, he and fellow actor Sarah Parish supported a campaign to raise £1million for The Bridge School in Islington.
In 2012, he portrayed the Duke of Buckingham in the play Richard III, and in 2013, portrayed Sir Andrew Aguecheek in Twelfth Night, both plays by William Shakespeare, both at the Apollo Theatre, London.




Personal life


Lloyd-Pack was married twice: first to Sheila Ball, from whom he was divorced in 1972, and secondly to the poet and dramatist Jehane Markham (daughter of David Markham), whom he married in 2000. He had a daughter, actress Emily Lloyd and three sons. He later lived in Kentish Town, North London, and also had a home near Fakenham in Norfolk.
Lloyd-Pack was a supporter of Tottenham Hotspur.
He was an honorary patron of the London children's charity Scene & Heard.
In a 2008 interview, when asked what profession he would have chosen aside from acting, Lloyd-Pack said: "Psychiatrist or a psychoanalyst or something in the psycho world because I've always been interested in that... or I might have been a photographer... I also would have loved to have been a musician." In that same interview, he listed his favourite directors as Peter Gill, Harold Pinter, Richard Eyre, Thea Sharrock and Tina Packer, and listed actor Paul Scofield as both a favourite and influence.

Lloyd-Pack supported the Labour Party and campaigned for Ken Livingstone in the 2012 London mayoral election. However, in 2013, he signed a letter in The Guardian stating he had withdrawn his support from the Labour Party, in favour of a new party of the left, Left Unity.




Death and tributes



Lloyd-Pack died of pancreatic cancer at his home in Kentish Town, aged 69, on 16 January 2014. His funeral was held at the church of St. Paul's, Covent Garden. It was attended by Sir David Jason, Nicholas Lyndhurst, John Challis and Sue Holderness. He was buried at Highgate Cemetery East.
Nigel Havers, Stephen Rea, Miranda Richardson, Alison Steadman, Kathy Burke and Joely Richardson paid tribute to him.
In March that year, the Sport Relief special of Only Fools and Horses was dedicated to the memory of both Lloyd-Pack and John Sullivan. Similarly, the final episode of the lockdown edition of The Vicar of Dibley ended with a tribute just before the closing credits reading, "In loving memory of Liz, John, Emma and Roger", paying tribute to him and three other late Dibley cast members (Liz Smith, John Bluthal and Emma Chambers). The third episode of series 8 of Law & Order: UK, which Lloyd-Pack appeared in, aired two months after his death and similarly ended with a tribute title card.
