===Other roles=== [[File:Desmond Llewelyn.jpg|thumb|Llewelyn in 1992]] Llewellyn continued to act in other roles throughout his tenure as 'Q', notably appearing the 1963 film ''[[Cleopatra (1963 film)|Cleopatra]]'' (as a Roman senator), and the 1981 [[Public Broadcasting Service|PBS]] production of ''[[Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde]]'', and he had a small role in the musical ''[[Chitty Chitty Bang Bang]]'' (1968), which was itself based on a children's book by Bond author [[Ian Fleming]]. Llewelyn would also appear as Geoffrey Maddocks ('The Colonel') in the British television series ''[[Follyfoot]]'' from 1971 to 1973, and the BBC Wales production ''[[The Life and Times of David Lloyd George]]'' with [[Philip Madoc]]. The Bond film ''Live and Let Die'' was filmed during the third series of ''Follyfoot'', and Llewelyn was written out of the series for three episodes so he could appear in the film. However, the Bond producers ultimately decided to leave the character out of the film anyway, much to Llewelyn's annoyance.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.follyfoot-tv.co.uk/jott/des_inter/des_interveiw.htm |title=Llewelyn's last interview (with reference to ''Follyfoot'' and ''Live and Let Die'') |publisher=Follyfoot-tv.co.uk |date=19 December 1999 |access-date=19 November 2010 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120217053521/http://www.follyfoot-tv.co.uk/jott/des_inter/des_interveiw.htm |archive-date=17 February 2012 }}</ref> He was the subject of ''[[This Is Your Life (British TV series)|This Is Your Life]]'' in 1995 when he was surprised by [[Michael Aspel]] at London's Hyde Park Hotel, during a press launch for the new Bond film, ''[[GoldenEye]]''.<ref name="WBio"></ref>
