Bayler was born in Wanganui, the son of Amy (née Allomes) and Harold Bayler, a stagehand.[1] His first film appearance was in the New Zealand film Broken Barrier (1952).
His associations with Monty Python date from 1975 when he appeared in both seasons of Eric Idle's BBC TV series Rutland Weekend Television. This led to his appearance as Leggy Mountbatten, manager of fictional Beatles-parody band The Rutles, in the American-made TV movie All You Need Is Cash in 1978. Idle also cast him in his play, "Pass The Butler"
