I mainly know him for two movies--the professor in NIGHT OF THE EAGLE aka BURN WITCH BURN and as the memorable Klytus in FLASH GORDON.

Caligula: Do you think I'm mad?...Sometimes I think that I'm going mad. Do you — be honest with me — has that thought ever crossed your mind?

Claudius: Never. Never. The idea is preposterous. You set the standard of sanity for the whole world.

Thanks for letting us know, Primemovermithrax Pejorative; I remember Wyngarde from Night of the Eagle and The Innocents, along with some wonderful performances on The Saint, The Avengers (incredible in “A Touch of Brimstone” and “Epic”), and The Prisoner. Age 90. R.I.P.
