Andreas Siegfried "Andrew" Sachs (born 7 April 1930 in Berlin) is a German-born British actor. He made his name on British television and is best known for his portrayals of Manuel in Fawlty Towers, a role for which he was BAFTA-nominated, and Ramsay Clegg in Coronation Street.
Early life
Sachs was born in Berlin, Germany, the son of Katharina (née Schrott-Fiecht), a librarian, and Hans Emil Sachs, an insurance broker. His father was Jewish and his mother was Catholic, and of half Austrian descent. He left with his parents for Britain in 1938, when he was eight years old, to escape the Nazis. They settled in north London, and he still lives in Kilburn.
In 1960, Sachs married Melody Lang, who appeared in one episode of Fawlty Towers, "Basil the Rat", as Mrs. Taylor. His stepson is John Sachs, formerly Capital Radio DJ and Gladiators commentator.
Career
In the late 1950s, Sachs worked on radio productions, including Private Dreams and Public Nightmares by Frederick Bradnum, an early experimental programme made by the BBC Radiophonic Workshop.

Andrew Sachs' Granddaughter Georgina Baillie Reacts To Russell Brand Allegations
Piers Morgan Uncensored is joined by the granddaughter of the late Fawlty Towers star Andrew Sachs, Georgina Baillie, to discuss her controversial history with Russell Brand and to give her opinion of the allegations made by women against him.
Georgina, who was the centre of what was known as 'Sachsgate' in 2008 after Brand and Jonathan Ross left her grandfather a voicemail revealing her sexual relationship with Brand, believes that victims need to be heard and that she sympathises as a victim of sexual abuse herself.
However she also tells Piers Morgan that after knowing Russell for so long, she finds it difficult to see him as someone who could have done these things.

Manuel from Fawlty Towers in Halifax advert
Here's an unexpected gem I unearthed from a VHS tape recorded in 1990 - an advert for Halifax insurance featuring Andrew Sachs in character as hapless Spanish waiter Manuel. Granted, it's not exactly comedy gold, but nevertheless it's a fascinating curio for fans of Fawlty Towers everywhere.
(Please remember that this is an off-air VHS recording, so don't go expecting 1080p HD quality. I'm fairly certain that this video isn't commercially available, and I've uploaded it for its historic interest only. That said, if you are a copyright holder and object, please don't hesitate to contact me.)
