Trivia
His first film was a starring role in The Fighting Prince of Donegal (1966) but, during the third day of filming, he had to jump off a horse and run down a hill. He caught his foot in a rabbit hole and broke his ankle. This resulted in him in being dropped from the film and losing his five-year contract with Walt Disney.
Quotes
I contracted tuberculosis, spent two years in a sanatorium, worked on the fairgrounds, got married... in fact, I was almost 30 by the time I joined Everyman Theatre Group in Ramsgate. The East Kent Times gave me a rave review for my first play and that was all the encouragement I needed. [explaining the relatively late start of his acting career]
