From his small-screen debut in the BBC series Z Cars in the 1960s he has become one of Britain’s most familiar and best-loved actors.Brian has performed on stage in every type of production from Shakespeare to Cats, while his big screen roles have included Robin Hood’s father, Lord Locksley in Prince of Thieves and Prince Voltan, warrior leader of the Hawkmen in the 1980’s cult classic Flash Gordon.Away from acting he has become known as an adventurer and climber, scaling Mount Kilimanjaro, surviving a plane crash in the jungles of Venezuela and trekking to the magnetic north pole.At the age of seven he read about George Mallory’s 1924 ascent of Everest and this inspired a lifetime’s dream of recreating the historic climb. He met and became a close friend of Captain John Noel.
