This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 54.163.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪Blablubbs‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider or colocation provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts and colocation providers may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host or colocation provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a colocation provider's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a colocation web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host or colocation provider (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host or colocation provider.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and requests should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 17:28, 10 March 2024.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

'''Ronald Radd''' (22 January 1929 – 23 April 1976) was a British television actor. He is perhaps best remembered for originating the role of Hunter in the television thriller series ''[[Callan (TV series)|Callan]]''. In 1971, he was nominated for a [[Tony Award]] for ''Abelard and Heloise''.

==Early work==
Radd began as a [[stage actor]] in the [[New Alexandra Theatre|Alexandra Theatre]] in [[Birmingham]] in the early-1950s, along with the likes of [[Leslie Sands]] and [[Edward Mulhare]]. In 1951 he appeared in a [[Lionel Hamilton]] production of ''[[The Romantic Young Lady]]'' at the [[Kettering Savoy]].<ref>''Northampton Mercury'', 9 March 1951, p. 5; accessed via The [[British Newspaper Archive]] ((subscription)); retrieved 22 November 2014.</ref>

By 1954, Radd had graduated to the [[West End theatre|West End]], where he appeared with [[Kenneth Williams]] in two different productions in the [[Apollo Theatre]] in February 1956, ''The Buccaneer'' and ''[[The Boy Friend (musical)|The Boy Friend]]''.

In 1958 he starred in My Fair Lady on Broadway with Reginald Denny.

==Television and film work==
Radd gradually lost interest in [[theatre]] and broke into television in ''[[Ordeal by Fire]]'' in 1957 as a dastardly Frenchman with [[Peter Wyngarde]] and [[Patrick Troughton]] whom he appeared with in the BBC production of ''[[A Tale of Two Cities]]'' (1958).

Radd made a number of appearances in the [[NBC]] production ''[[The Shari Lewis Show]]'' between 1960 and 1963, and in 1960 appeared in the production of [[Eugene O'Neill]]'s ''[[The Iceman Cometh (The Play of the Week)|The Iceman Cometh]]'' directed by [[Sidney Lumet]], who also directed him in the [[feature film]] adaptation of ''[[The Sea Gull]]'' (1968) and ''[[The Offence]]'' (1972). In between them he appeared in [[John Huston]]'s ''[[The Kremlin Letter]]'' (1970). Radd worked alongside actors such as [[Robert Redford]] and [[Jason Robards]]. In that year, Radd also appeared in the [[NBC]] production of ''[[The Tempest]]'' playing the role of the drunkard Stefano, alongside [[Richard Burton]] who portrayed Caliban and [[Maurice Evans (actor)|Maurice Evans]] as Prospero.  Radd had at least one guest appearance on Episode 2 of the TV series ''[[The Saint (TV series)|The Saint]]'', which starred a young [[Roger Moore]].  The episode first aired Sept 26, 1963.

Radd featured in some 60 different TV shows between 1955 and 1976 including ''[[The Avengers (TV series)|The Avengers]]'', ''[[Danger Man]]'', ''[[The Prisoner]], [[Special Branch (TV series)|Special Branch]]'' and ''[[Z-Cars]]''. He memorably played "Hunter" in the one-off television play in ITV's "''[[Armchair Theatre]]''" strand, called ''[[Callan (TV series)#Pilot – A Magnum for Schneider (1967)|A Magnum For Schneider]]''.  To protect his shady Government department ("The Section"), Hunter brings once-top operative and assassin David Callan ([[Edward Woodward]]) back to kill Schneider, an international illegal arms dealer.  Hunter's plan is for Callan to be caught at the scene and take the blame, thus getting the job done yet clearing The Section of involvement. But Callan gets wise when first police, then colleague Toby Meres turn up at Schneider's apartment. Callan turns the tables by leaving Meres unconscious in his place. This led to the creation of the highly regarded spy series ''[[Callan (TV series)|Callan]]'' with highly charged, antagonistic exchanges between Callan and Hunter among episode highlights.  Radd appeared occasionally in later series of ''Callan''.

In the sixth episode of ''[[Randall and Hopkirk (Deceased)]]'', "[[Just for the Record (Randall and Hopkirk Deceased)|Just for the Record]]" in 1969, he played the role of the villain Pargiter, a deluded character intent on proving he was heir to the throne of England.

In 1971, Radd's performance in ''Abelard and Heloise'', earned him a nomination for [[Broadway theatre|Broadway]]'s [[Tony Award for Best Featured Actor in a Play]].

==Death==
He died in [[Toronto]], [[Ontario]], [[Canada]] of a [[brain haemorrhage]] in 1976 aged 47.
