When World War II broke out, the young George Baker was forced to wave his Yorkshire-born father goodbye in Bulgaria and return to England with his mother, an Irish nurse. He never saw him again. The unpredictable life that followed nonetheless led to a brilliant career in acting - two Bond films, "I, Claudius" and notably the role of Chief Inspector Wexford in Ruth Rendell's ITV murder mysteries. After the loss of his dearly beloved wife to cancer in the 1990s, Baker married his on-screen wife Dora, actress Louie Ramsay.
