Lennard Pearce (born February 9, 1915 in London; died December 15, 1984 in London) was a British actor who mostly worked in theater. He got world famous with a role of Grandad in BBC sitcom Only Fools and Horses. Pearce was born in London, and studied drama at the Royal Academy.
He died of a heart attack during the production of the Only Fools and Horses episode "Hole In One" – the episode was moved to later in the series, and scenes he had filmed on location prior to his death were re-shot with Buster Merryfield as the replacement character Uncle Albert.
Other appearances include a role in the 1966 BBC Wednesday Play Cathy Come Home, directed by Ken Loach.
