Actor. He was best known for playing the character roles of colonels, chief inspectors, Greek gods, police officers, married men, single men, politicians, frontier guards, priests, captains, ship engineers, auction organizers, inspectors, sergeants, cooks, colonels, landlords, councillors, doctors, police chiefs, cardinals, commissioners, vice admirals, monsignors, vicars, actors, professors, bishops, and men of distinction with such titles as sir or count, usually in war films, spy films, or adventure films. He will be best remembered for playing the role of 'George Smiley' in the classic thriller film drama, "The Spy Who Came In From The Cold" (1965). The film which was directed by Martin Ritt, which was written for the screen by Paul Dehn and Guy Trosper, which was based on the novel by John le Carré, and which also starred Richard Burton, Claire Bloom, Oskar Werner, Sam Wanamaker, and George Voskovec, tells the story of instead of coming in from the Cold War, British agent Alec Leamas chooses to face another mission. He was the first actor to play the role of 'George Smiley.' The character was later played by Alec Guinness, Gary Oldman, Denholm Elliott, and James Mason, (though it was based on 'George Smiley,' the character's name had to be changed to 'Charles Dobbs' because Paramount Studios owned the rights to the character). He will also be best remembered for playing the role of pipe-smoking 'Chief Inspector Maigret' on television in fifty-two episodes of the crime television series drama, "Maigret," from 1960 to 1963, and in eighteen episodes of the crime television series drama, "Detective," in 1964. Having become famous for playing 'Inspector Maigret' on television, he then impersonated a Maigret-like character in a series of commercials for Dubonnet, and for ITV. The author Georges Simenon (1903-1989), who created Inspector Maigret's character, objected to the commercials and had them stopped. The actor regretted this, claiming he had made more money over the few days of filming the commercials than he had in nearly four years of playing the role of 'Inspector Maigret' for the British Broadcasting Corporation (or BBC). He was often regarded as the definitive screen incarnation of the author Georges Simenon's easy-going detective, 'Chief Inspector Maigret.' On the strength of his popularity, the actor himself was named Television Actor of the Year in 1963. He was born as Rupert Lisburn Gwynne Davies to Howard Davies (1883-1951), and his wife Louie Lloyd Thomas Davies (1883-1974), in Liverpool, England, on March 22, 1916. During World War II, he served with the rank of a Sub-Lieutenant (or Observer) in the Royal Navy Fleet Air Arm. He flew The Fairey Swordfish, a torpedo bomber, and one day in 1940, he was flying and had to ditch his plane in the sea off the Dutch Coast. He was captured and sent to Stalag Luft III, the camp made famous through the adventure war film, "The Great Escape" (1963). While at the Stalag Luft III prison camp he developed a serious interest in theatre, through entertaining his fellow prisoners. He also made three escape attempts, all of which failed. Following his military service and being released from the prison camp, he returned home to England and pursued his acting career further. He made his actual film debut playing the role of 'Critias-Zeus' in the comedy film drama, "The Thracian Horses" (1946). The film which was directed by Maurice Valency, which was produced by Philip Bate, also starred Donald Bain, Barbara Birchenough, Jean Byam, Andrew Cruikshank, Brian Worth, and George Cormack.
