PETER WYNGARDE BIOGRAPHY -
REVIEWS & COMMENTS
Peter Wyngarde sadly passed
away on 15th January, 2018.
His first ever biography from 2012 has since sold out and
the new 2019 revised and updated edition is now available. |
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. This is a brilliant biography of a
distinguished actor, written with both warmth and insight. Mr Wyngarde should be well
gratified. This book does him proud.
