Milton Johns (born 1938 in Bristol) is an English actor whose thin features and talent for obsequious or oily characters has often influenced the many television parts he has received. He trained at the Bristol Old Vic Theatre School.
He was in Coronation Street as Brendan Scott (1991-1993), the shopkeeper who died of a heart attack while pedalling along the eponymous cobbled street. Other roles have included parts in Poldark, Born and Bred, Ever Decreasing Circles, Dempsey and Makepeace, Shoestring, Yes Minister, Some Mothers Do 'Ave 'Em, Softly, Softly, and Z Cars. He's best known for playing the landlord in the 2002 series of The Basil Brush Show.
Johns has appeared in Doctor Who on several occasions: as Theodore Benik The Enemy of the World; Guy Crayford in The Android Invasion; and Castellan Kelner in The Invasion of Time.
He also appeared as an Imperial Officer (Captain Bewil) in The Empire Strikes Back.
