'''Angelo Muscat''' ([[September 24]], [[1930]] - [[October 10]], [[1977]]) was a character actor.
Muscat was born in [[Malta]]. He appeared in 14 of the 17 episodes of the sixties cult TV series ''[[The Prisoner]]'', in which he played the famously mute Butler. Distinctly diminutive at only 4' 3" (1.3 m) , he played an [[Oompa-Loompa]] in ''[[Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory]]'' (uncredited, 1971). He also appeared in the Beatles' ''[[Magical Mystery Tour (album)|Magical Mystery Tour]]''.
He made ornate birdcages by hand. Each year, on October 10, a small group of enthusiasts dubbed the "Friends of Angelo Muscat" (FOAM) celebrate his life.<ref>{{cite web | url = http://commonsensenews.tripod.com/id18.html | title = The Angelo Muscat Shrine | accessdate = 2008-05-21}}</ref>
