I misread the name
Yes, but you said later:
So we have John again. Wikipedia votes for Canadian.

Born in Vancouver, it says. Never knew this, always thought he was American, but I guess that’s more often the case with Canadian actors, singers, etc.
Indeed, I wasn’t aware he was Canadian either!
2 other Brits.

I am watching The Prisoner series for the second time now (not counting in my youth when I probably didn’t see so very much of it). The 14th episode in a western setting is more funny to watch now after being a more experienced SW aficionado since the last 7 years of collecting.
The episode aired Dec 29, 1967 is clearly inspired by several SWs, with for example some slow Spanish guitar for atmosphere not too much dialouge etc… Actually it reminded me of a couple of themes from A Gun For 100 Graves/Pistol For A Hundred Coffins (Umberto Lenzi) including refusing using a revolver at first, a psycho killer, lady in distress - but that SW is from 1968 hmm 
Although it is the lowest IMDb rated episode of all 17 with a 7.0 I found it more entertaining now than at least a few of the others.
It is also on Youtube.
McGoohan was also in Nobody is the Greatest… but American born, apparently.
John Cleese in Silverado
Ronald Howard son of Leslie and best known for playing Sherlock Holmes on TV in the 1950s was in both The Hunting Party and Take a Hard Ride.
Of course, Liam Neeson is Northern Irish🤠
Diana Dors and Christopher Lee , ‘Hannie Caulder’ (1971) if not already mentioned
Going through this thread - Richard Harris may not qualify (Irish), but his son Jared certainly does (‘Dead Man’).
Margaret Lee, who was English but appeared in many Italian genre films in the 1960s and 1970, including several with Klaus Kinski, was in a few westerns including a Franco and Cicci one.
Percy Herbert, (well known English character actor, who seemed to be in almost every postwar British film) appeared in the masterpiece, ‘Captain Apache’ (1971)
That dance scene in Way Out West is one of the best things ever captured on celluloid.
Don Knight … actor from Manchester who appeared in loads of American films and TV action adventure series in the late 1960s and throughout the 70s and 80s … Here he is with Dean Martin in the so-so western comedy, ‘Something Big’ (1971) , (which also features two lady brits, Honor Blackman and Carol White, who famously played the title role of ‘Dulcima’(1971) )
Knight appeared in many episodes of Hawaii 5-O, usually as a bad guy. Must have lived there. I always thought he was Australia.
I recall reading somewhere that a lot of British expats living in Spain ended up as extras in scenes where the film makers wanted a more “Anglo” looking cast.
