Career

Rich has appeared twice in the Doctor Who episode The Time Meddler (1965), where he played 'Gunnar the Giant',a huge Viking warrior. He also appeared in the Doctor Who episode Mission to the Unknown (also 1965). Rich appeared in the Lance Percival Show (1965). He appeared in Doctor in Clover (1965) as a student doctor.

In You Only Live Twice (1967) Ronald Rich plays Hans, the huge Aryan personal bodyguard of Dr. Blofeld, who remains behind when Blofeld flees from his hideout in a volcano. James Bond and Hans fight on a bridge over a pool full of Piranhas. After a missed punch Bond flips Hans over his shoulder into the pool, remarking "Bon appetit!". Esquire Magazine ranked Hans #41 in the list of James Bond Villains, saying, "As a character, Hans doesn't offer much. As an obstacle, he's terrific.
