I remember hearing it quite recently. Anyway ....
The guy I'm thinking of was a test match opening batsman for England, but was never dismissed.

No.
EDIT
If it helps, I can now confirm that he is the only test opening batsman never to have been dismissed.

Did he play more than one Test?

That's the one. Sorry about ignoring the previous questions, but I was busy sleeping.
Anyway, Andy Lloyd's one test was indeed against Clive Lloyd's WI side in 1984. He'd reached 10* when a bouncer from Marshall flattened him and he was immediately taken to hospital. He wasn't fit to bat in the 2nd innings, missed the rest of the summer and was never picked again.

Test Match (or, indeed, Test century).Thought this would've been easy.
Clue - The First was in Australia.
