Reply to comment by res30stupid in TIL that Gert Frobe, the actor who portrayed Auric Goldfinger in James Bond, was a former Nazi. Because of this, Goldfinger was banned in Israel until a Jewish man informed the Israeli Embassy that Frobe had hidden his mother and him from the Nazis. by NYstate

Actually, Quarrel's actor dubbed himself, since he lived in Europe and was able to -- Peter Hunt, the film's editor, confirmed it (and I've heard John Kitzmiller's voice in other films; it's him). But I'm pretty sure the roadworker was dubbed by Robert Rietty.

Robert Rietty dubbed almost every male side character in Dr. No; Nikki Van Der Zyl dubbed every female side character. Barbara Jeffords voiced Tatiana Romanova in From Russia with Love; Michael Collins voiced Goldfinger. And, yes, Rietty voiced Celi in Thunderball; he also dubbed Tetsuro Tamba in You Only Live Twice.
