Please join me in this video, George Baker - Film and TV Actor - Ruth Rendell Mysteries.
George Baker is most generally known as D.C.I. Wexford in the Ruth Rendell Mysteries series which ran on television for thirteen years, from 1987 to 2000!
A veteran of stage and television George Baker's first West End appearance was in 1953 and before his death in 2011 he chalked up over 140 credits on the big and the small screen! He also continued to work in theatre and was an accomplished writer - from comedy scripts to cookery books and everything in between!
George Baker had a somewhat complicated love life - he married three times and was also made a widower twice. In the 1950s George Baker had a short but passionate affair with one of cinema's most beautiful actresses!
Please join me as we remember the life and times of an exceptionally gifted actor, and take flowers to his final resting place at All Saints Church, West Lavington, Wiltshire.
If you are interested in reading more about George Baker - I can thoroughly recommend his autobiography 'The Way to Wexford' George Baker - published by Headline Book Publishing in 2002 and is still available from many good bookshops including online shops such as Amazon.

Thank you so much. I am always quite sad when a grave is not really taken care of, especially with someone so well known. Is it that difficult to visit now and again and pay a bit of respect, especially when they had a big family? Very sad! Thank you for taking him flowers. Bless you.

I agree with George about regrets you shouldn't have them they only hold you back in life and they are lessons in yourself .

I think it was so sad - I know some people wouldn’t look favourably on his chequered history with the women in his life but I feel he knew he’d not done right by his first wife - he admitted it and he regretted what many would consider his bad behaviour - and I completely agree with you we are all human - it’s easy to judge and the thing is everyone is judged by different standards!

Was in 2 Bond films (On Her Majesty's Secret Service and The Spy. Who Loved Me).

@BeautifulBadandBizarre Год назад

He was - there was also talk of him being a potential for James Bond himself!

@darthdmc Год назад

@@BeautifulBadandBizarre Ironically he did "play" him in OHMSS, as he would dub George Lazenby when Bond impersonates his character Sir Hilary to get into Blofeld's secret base.

Great upload Full of facts and very interesting. George Baker was an excellent actor. Enjoyed it very much.

@BeautifulBadandBizarre Год назад

Thank you so much - I appreciate that! George truly was an excellent actor - I always loved the chemistry between him and Diana Dors in Tread Softly Stranger! 🌹

@LesterMoore Год назад

In his youth he certainly had a wonderful head of hair didn't he? Personally I thought Diana Dors was hot potatoes after seeing her in a film with Victor Mature. Woo Woo! She was perfect for the black and white silver screen film noir. It was the 1957s "Long Haul." That truly is a peaceful lovely cemetery. RIP all there.

@BeautifulBadandBizarre Год назад

🤣🤣🤭 he did!!! He was beautiful 🥰 Oh my goodness!!! The Long Haul - much underrated - it’s such a good film it deserves more attention! Diana was simply stunning - and very much in love with Tommy Yeardye at the time - Victor’s stuntman! Thank you for watching the video - it’s a lovely village and the church and cemetery are very pretty x

@fus149hammer5 Год назад

I wonder if George got lucky with Diana as well as Bardot..🤩

@BeautifulBadandBizarre Год назад

@@fus149hammer5 😂😂😂 well - from what I understand - no he didn’t but not for want of trying lol

@fus149hammer5 Год назад

@@BeautifulBadandBizarre I'm liking him more by the minute.

@BeautifulBadandBizarre Год назад

🤣🤣🤣🤣 they were dancing - I think it was 1956 in Cannes - and George said he pressed his leg against Diana’s and she told him he could pack that in - it was rude 🤣🤣🤣

I wonder why, he ended up with his second wife? He was great in Minder... where he played a villain who captured Arthur, haha!! SADLY, I have too many regrets'... can't shake them!

@BeautifulBadandBizarre 2 месяца назад

This thought crossed my mind - I did think that perhaps it was his wishes and/or that he had made the arrangements at the time of her death - as many people do when they lose a partner. George was indeed a brilliant actor! xxxxx

@stuartwildridge5822 Год назад

Tread softly was filmed in Parkgate iron and steel works Parkgate Rotherham. It was about a wages robbery. S D WILDRIDGE. Rotherham sth Yorkshire.

@BeautifulBadandBizarre Год назад

Yes that’s correct - I’ve been to the pub in Rotherham were some scenes were filmed but interestingly Diana Dors never went there.

@douglasleak1262 3 месяца назад

Well I never! Dam busters is one of my fave films filled with great actors and I never knew George Baker played Dave Maltby. You’ve taught me something Shar

@BeautifulBadandBizarre Год назад

It’s a fantastic film!!! One of Dave Maltby’s colleagues that George remained friends with always called George Dave thereafter because he said he looked so much like Dave Maltby! I never thought about it before but after I heard that I totally saw it! X
