Britsh actor best known for his role as Leonard Dunn in the TV series 'Butterflies' where he played a reasonably well off divorcee who the main charcater Ria Parkinson (Wendy Craig) who was married but somewhat bored with her life considered an affair with him. Other television appearances include 'New Tricks', Keeping Up Appearances' and the BBC Schools 'Look and Read' program 'Fairground' RIP

I was under the impression he was the brother of Lee Montague, but this appears not to be the case.
'Butterflies' was a rather good sitcom, without being spectacular, and Bruce was one of a great cast.
R.I.P. Bruce Montague.

Great in Butterflies, of course, but I particularly love his performance as the Shah of Iran in the TV version of Whoops Apocalypse. RIP.
I also thought he was Lee Montague's brother, Portland Road. Surprised it wasn't the case as there seems to be a family resemblance...

Sad news. RIP Bruce. I too thought he was the brother of Lee Montague. He certainly bore a resemblance, and Montague is not a particularly common surname as far as I'm aware.
