Anthony Thomas Jackson, (18 February 1944 — 26 November 2006), was a British actor best known for playing Trevor Lewis in Bless This House and Fred Mumford in Rentaghost.
His career began at the Birmingham Repertory Theatre. After a period of studying at Rose Bruford College, he won the Carlton Hobbs Bursary in 1956 and joined the Radio Drama Company. Jackson also appeared on stage at the Mermaid Theatre and the Nottingham Playhouse.
In 1959, he provided voices for Ivor the Engine, later returning to the series in The '70s when it was Revived in colour. That same decade he starred in You're Only Young Twice (1971) and appeared throughout all six series of Bless This House as the Abbott's neighbour, Trevor Lewis. In the 1972 film spin-off, Jackson didn't return, and Trevor was recast with Peter Butterworth. He was one of the original cast members of Rentaghost but left the series after the death of co-star Michael Darbyshire in 1979.
Ivor wasn't Jackson's only voice-over role, he also provided voices for series such as Budgie the Little Helicopter, The Dreamstone, Shakespeare: The Animated Tales, Testament: The Bible in Animation, and The World of Peter Rabbit and Friends.
He died of cancer at the age of 62.
