Derren Nesbitt was born in London on June 19th 1935. A rather intriguing British actor who first appeared on UK cinema and television screens in the late 1950's and quickly found steady work as a rather unpleasant or untrustworthy individual. His cold, yet cunning features had him appearing in guest roles on many UK TV series including The Adventures of Sir Lancelot and William Tell.
Nesbitt appeared in two episodes of the first series of Danger Man and one episode of the second series, always playing villains. In 'Sting in the Tail' Nesbitt plays the deadly assassin Noureddine, a role he later reprises in The Prisoner episode 'It's your Funeral' when he plots to assassinate the retiring Number Two. |
