He was intended for the legal profession, but abandoned his father's solicitor's practice in the early 1920s in favour of the stage. His theatre successes included Michael Frayn's comedies Alphabetical Order and Donkey's Years, in the second of which he was performing at the time of his sudden death.[3]
He appeared in many British television series and films including The Adventures of Robin Hood, Dixon of Dock Green, Bomb in the High Street, The Trials of Oscar Wilde, Lord Jim, Out of the Unknown, Emergency Ward 10, The Avengers and Hands of the Ripper.[4]
