Here is the life story of one of Australia's best loved and most highly respected actors. After an idyllic Coogee boyhood, he served as a RAAF Spitfire pilot then began on Sydney radio. He ventured to post-war, glamorous Hollywood and London in the swinging sixties, appearing in such classic films as The Desert Rats and television's Catweazle and Thunderbirds. In 1973 he returned home to appear in the long running police drama Homicide. He continued acting, directing and producing, becoming an integral part of the Aussie film industry renaissance in films such as Breaker Morant and Evil Angels before one of his greatest roles in the 1990s - as Lawrence Hammill QC in the smash film, The Castle.
