Biography
After Terence Bayler passed away in August 2016, Monty Python's Eric Idle wrote of Bayler's "gentle" and "loving" humour. "I loved his commitment to a role and his high seriousness no matter how apparently silly the part".
Bayler had only a small number of screen credits in New Zealand, but dozens in the United Kingdom.
“A studio spokesman said the fight had been most realistic. At first the studio nurse had not been able to tell the difference between the actor's real blood and Polanski's prop blood, his own special mixture which includes instant coffee.”
