Decked

Now Lance LeGault will really never catch the A-Team, having died at the age of 77. Best remembered as Colonel Roderick Decker, the Wile E. Coyote to the A-Team’s Road Runner, LeGault employed his voice “4 octaves lower than God’s” to find steady work as a serial heavy on action shows of the late 1970s and 1980s. He started as a stunt double for Elvis in Girls! Girls! Girls!, and the King must have taken a shine, as LeGault scored an uncredited role in that movie, then returned for Kissin’ Cousins and Viva Las Vegas, played a tambourine in Elvis’ 1968 comeback special, and led thousands of fans around Graceland as the voice of the self-guided tour. As Al Halliday on Dallas, LeGault also sold J.R. a tanker that he needed to fulfill a contract, but that crashed into a Westar tanker, causing a massive spill, which Cliff Barnes claimed was solely the responsibility of Ewing Oil for its unseaworthy tanker despite having evidence that the collision was simply an accident.
