Wilmer was born 8 January 1920 in Brentford, Middlesex, to Harry and Kate (née Tavener) Wilmer . His father was an accountant, and Wilmer spent his childhood in Shanghai where his father worked. When he was about 13 years old, Douglas was sent back to the United Kingdom to attend The King's School, Canterbury. and received his education at King's School, Canterbury, and Stonyhurst College. A performance as the Archbishop of Canterbury in a school play at King's School was seen by Dame Sybil Thorndike who afterward told the headmaster "If that boy, playing the Archbishop, were to take to the stage, I think that he could well make a go of it."
