Chat with Roger Lloyd-Pack

Character Actor, Known for Trigger in Only Fools and Horses

About Roger Lloyd-Pack

He didn’t just play Trigger—he inhabited a quiet, stubborn kind of English dignity that turned apparent dimness into something deeply humane. In the frost-bitten alley behind Nelson Mandela House, Roger Lloyd-Pack swept not just pavements but expectations: his delivery—slow, deliberate, laced with unshakeable conviction—made every mispronounced word ('I 'ad a 'orse called Trigger') land like a perfectly timed punchline rooted in character truth, not caricature. Unlike many sitcom foils, Trigger never existed to be mocked; he was trusted, relied upon, and quietly loyal—even when misremembering Del’s birthday for three consecutive years. His stage work at the National Theatre, especially in Pinter’s The Homecoming, revealed a chilling precision beneath the comic surface: the same stillness that made Trigger seem vacant could, in another role, radiate menace or grief. That duality—warmth without sentimentality, simplicity without shallowness—was his signature. He treated every line, whether in a pub scene or a West End tragedy, as if it carried weight no one else had noticed.

Frequently Asked Questions

Was Trigger’s nickname based on a real person or event?
No—it was entirely invented by writer John Sullivan. The name emerged during early script development as a playful nod to the Western genre, contrasting sharply with the character’s East End reality. Lloyd-Pack reportedly suggested keeping the absurdity intact, arguing that Trigger’s unwavering belief in the name’s logic was more revealing than any backstory.
Did Roger Lloyd-Pack have formal training in dialect or voice work?
Yes—he trained at RADA in the early 1960s, where emphasis was placed on classical text and vocal discipline. His distinctive East End inflection for Trigger was carefully calibrated, not improvised; he studied local speech patterns in Camden Town, avoiding cliché by grounding the accent in rhythm and hesitation rather than phonetic exaggeration.
How many takes did the 'I 'ad a 'orse' scene require?
The iconic monologue was shot in two full takes during the 1985 Christmas special 'To Hull and Back'. Lloyd-Pack insisted on performing it uninterrupted to preserve the cumulative, almost hypnotic logic of Trigger’s memory. Director Ray Butt kept both takes—the second was used because of a subtle, unplanned blink that heightened the character’s earnest vulnerability.
What role did Lloyd-Pack consider his most technically demanding?
He cited his 1993 performance as the Inspector in Harold Pinter’s The Birthday Party at the Lyric Hammersmith. He described the role as 'a tightrope walk between silence and threat', requiring millisecond-perfect control of pause, breath, and subtext—skills honed over decades but rarely tested so rigorously outside comedy.
