A biography of Peter Wyngarde is long overdue. The actor was one of the faces of the '60s, an actor with a magnetic screen presence which the camera caught brilliantly. Wyngarde always brought an edge to a character portrayal, a sense of dynamism, smouldering sexuality and an intense presence. Effortlessly he dominated the screen. Wyngarde was already a familiar face when the character he portrayed, 'Jason King', catapulted him to world recognition. Simply the man dazzled, and exuded star quality. How fortunate therefore that Roger Langley's meticulously researched, well constructed, and skilfully written work does Wyngarde great credit.
This thorough work comprehensively covers every decade of his life. We learn a lot about the man as well as the public persona. He comes across as a true individual, a man treading a unique path. Obviously crafted over a period of time, the research is evident on every page.
