From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia
Gorden Kaye (b. Gordon Kaye on 7 April 1941 in Huddersfield) is most famous in the UK for his work on television sitcom 'Allo 'Allo, where he played the character of René Artois. He has worked on television, radio, film and on the stage.
The unusual spelling of the name Gorden is due to an Equity typing error.
Gorden is the author of a 1989 autobiography, Rene & Me: A Sort of Autobiography (with Hilary Bonner, ISBN 0283999659) in which he describes his experiences as a shy, gay, overweight youth.
Gorden suffered serious head injuries in a car accident in 1990 (see also Burns' Day storm). Although he cannot remember any details of the incident, he still has a dent in his forehead from a piece of wood that smashed through the car window.
