Biografía

Trained as a drama teacher at the Royal Scottish Academy of Music and Drama.

His photograph appears in the background of the documentary Perdidos en La Mancha (2002) on a pinboard: apparently he was cast in Terry Gilliam 's "The Man Who Killed Don Quixote" but did not film any scenes before production was called off.

Has worked on many voice-overs for documentaries such as Equinox, Horizon and Reputation. He has also worked extensively in radio, and has written and read his own stories for BBC Radio.

He played King James I in Will Shakespeare (1978) and his son, King Charles I, in El regreso de los mosqueteros (1989).

He was nominated for a Laurence Olivier Award in 1982, for his performance as "Schwekyk" in Bertolt Brecht's "Schwekyk in the Second World War", at the National Theatre.
