Ian Mackendrick Hendry (13 January 1931 – 24 December 1984) was an English film, television and stage actor best known for his parts in British TV series of the 1960s and 1970s, including the original The Avengers and The Lotus Eaters, as well as for his roles in films such as The Hill, (1965), Repulsion (1965), and Get Carter. Peers recognised him as exceptionally gifted, but he never fulfilled the promise of his early career, in large part due to a severe alcohol problem. Hendry, who was still able to turn in an impressive performance in his declining years, died aged 53.
Hendry was born in Ipswich, Suffolk on 13 January 1931. His father, James Hendry was born in 1901 in Glasgow. James obtained a degree in Chemistry from Glasgow University before moving to Ipswich in 1924 to take up a graduate position with R & W Paul Ltd. (now BOCM Pauls Ltd). His mother, Enid (née Rushton) was born in Durham in 1906. Shortly after her birth, Enid moved to Ipswich with her parents, George and Edith Rushton. George Rushton was an artist of some considerable talent and was Head of the Ipswich Art School from 1906-1929.
Jeremy Brett (born Peter Jeremy William Huggins; 3 November 1933 – 12 September 1995), was an English actor, probably best known for playing fictional detective Sherlock Holmes in four Granada TV series from 1984 to 1994 in all 41 episodes. His career spanned from stage, to television and film, to Shakespeare and musical theatre. He is also remembered for playing the besotted Freddie Eynsford-Hill in the Warner Bros. 1964 production of My Fair Lady.
Jeremy Brett was born Peter Jeremy William Huggins at Berkswell Grange in Berkswell, West Midlands. His birthdate is given variously as either 3 November 1933, December 1933 or many sources give 1935, although this was probably a later vanity claim to reduce his public age. He was the son of Lieutenant Colonel Henry William Huggins, an Army officer, and Elizabeth Edith Cadbury (of the confectionery dynasty). He had three older brothers: John, Patrick and Michael. The actor Martin Clunes is his nephew. Educated at Eton College, he claimed to have been an "academic disaster", attributing his learning difficulties to dyslexia.
Ronald is a masculine given name derived from the Old Norse Rögnvaldr. In some cases Ronald is an Anglicised form of the Gaelic Raghnall, a name likewise derived from Rögnvaldr.Ronald was originally used in England and Scotland, where Scandinavian influences were once substantial, although now the name is common throughout the English-speaking world. A short form of Ronald is Ron. Pet forms of Ronald include Roni and Ronnie. A feminine form of Ronald is Ronalda.Rhona, a modern name apparently only dating back to the late nineteenth century, may have originated as a feminine form of Ronald.
