He was awarded the OBE (Officer of the Order of the British Empire) in the 1998 Queen's Birthday Honours List for his services to drama.
Took over the role of the King of Spain in Carry On Columbus (1992) after the death of Frankie Howerd, who'd been due to play the part.
He and Bob Monkhouse swapped roles in A Weekend with Lulu (1961).
His association with the catchphrase "Ding dong," said whenever he saw an attractive women, first started when he played Jack Bell in Carry on Nurse (1959).

At age 18, he was called up for army service in the Royal Artillery and soon made a Lance Bombardier and sent for officer training becoming a 2nd Lieutenant and transferred to the Durham Light Infantry. A great deal of training with live ammunition caused him to suffer from a form of shell shock and after various light duties he was demobbed in the Autumn of 1944.
A much-loved comic actor who has specialized in playing plummy, quintessentially English stereotypes, Leslie Phillips' heart was in acting from a very young age. He received elocution lessons as a child in order to lose his natural cockney accent (at that time a regional British accent was a major impediment to an aspiring actor) and he attended the Italia Conti School. During the Second World War, he served with the Durham Light Infantry (1942-45) until he was invalided out suffering from shellshock.
Made his professional stage debut in 1937 at the London Palladium in 1937 as a wolf in Peter Pan starring Anna Neagle.
In 1936 his mother saw an advert in a paper for children required for a christmas show for Miss Italia Conti with whom he spent a few years at her stage school.
