Ewen MacIntosh, Keith in ‘The Office’ U.K., Dies at 50


Ewen MacIntosh, who famously played the deadpan accountant Keith in the original U.K. version of the 'The Office,' has died. He was 50.

Born in Wales, MacIntosh appeared in various shows on stage and screen, including “Little Britain” and the reality series “Celebrity Come Dine with Me,” and also performed at the Edinburgh Fridge Festival in 2007. Playing deadpan accountant Keith Bishop, he stole numerous scenes across two seasons of the hit show, which catapulted its creators Gervais and Stephen Merchant and many of its actors to stardom. “He may have had a famous face known by millions as Keith from The Office but the person inside is what I will most remember,” wrote his friend Ed Scott, CEO of DAB Music.
