Best Known For:
The Return of the Saint.
Early-life:
Ian Raymond Ogilvy was born in 1943 in Woking, Surrey. His father was a leading figure in advertising. As a youngster Ogilvy knew he wanted to act, thanks to roles in school plays. After serving an apprenticeship as an assistant stage manager with London's Royal Court Theatre, he went on to study at RADA. His first film, Revenge of the Blood Beast, was directed by his childhood friend Michael Reeves, with whom he also made The Sorcerers and Witchfinder General.
Career:
While working in repertory theatre, Ogilvy boosted his CV with a number of appearances in series such as The Avengers and Strange Report, and gained much popularity in Seventies programme Upstairs, Downstairs. He continued to work solidly in film and TV, most notably in I, Claudius. In 1978, he was given the starring role in The Return of the Saint, a show which made him a household name. He moved to America in the 1980s and appeared in a host of TV shows including Melrose Place, Diagnosis Murder and Murder, She Wrote. He also appeared in the movie Death Becomes Her.
Quote:
"It's dumb to have regrets, and in any case, whatever else The Return of the Saint did or didn't do, it made me very well known. For an actor, that is the big thing."
Trivia:
Away from acting, he has enjoyed success with his novels, which have included Loose Chippings, The Polkerton Giant, and Measle and the Wrathmonk.
