Actor Born: England Biography:British actor "Arthur Malet" came into prominence in the 1960s, playing old codgers while still relatively young. As banker Dawes Jr. in Disney's "Mary Poppins" (1964), he shared a funny musical moment with "Dick Van Dyke"; later on, he appeared on Van Dyke's television show, playing a doddering hotel plumber in the memorable episode wherein Laura Petrie (Mary Tyler Moore) gets her foot stuck in a bathtub faucet. Malet went on to play a village elder in "Mel Brooks"' "Young Frankenstein" (1974), and was frequently seen as butlers in both films ("Heaven Can Wait") and TV ("Dallas", "Easy Street"). And in the otherwise ponderous "Peter Pan" sequel "Hook" (1991), Arthur Malet has a delightful scene in which, as the aged "Lost Boy" Tootles, he regains his childhood flying skills and circles merrily around Big Ben. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
