Timeline
Anthony Colin Gerald Andrews (born 12 January 1948) is an English actor.
In 1968, he auditioned for a production of Alan Bennett's new play, Forty Years On, which featured John Gielgud as the headmaster of a British public school during the First World War period.
Andrews was cast as Skinner, one of twenty schoolboys.
Andrews met actress Georgina Simpson of the Simpsons of Piccadilly department store family and they were married on 1 December 1971.
They have three children.
In 1974 he played Lord Robert, Marquis of Stockbridge in the TV series Upstairs, Downstairs.
His other lead roles include Operation Daybreak (1975), Danger UXB (1979), Ivanhoe (1982) and The Scarlet Pimpernel (1982), and he played UK Prime Minister Stanley Baldwin in The King's Speech (2010).
Andrews was born in London, the son of Geraldine Agnes (née Cooper), a dancer, and Stanley Thomas Andrews, an arranger and conductor for the BBC.
He grew up in North Finchley, London.
At the age of eight, he took dancing lessons, making his stage debut as the White Rabbit in a stage adaptation of Lewis Carroll's Alice in Wonderland.
He attended the Royal Masonic School for Boys in Bushey, Hertfordshire.
After a series of jobs that included catering, farming and journalism, he secured a position at the Chichester Theatre, where he worked as an assistant stage manager and later as a stand-in producer.
In 1975 he had a leading role in the Spanish film Las adolescentes (The Adolescents), opposite Koo Stark.
In June 1977, he was cast in the role of Bodie in the ITV series The Professionals.
However, after three days of filming, the creator and producer Brian Clemens believed that the chemistry between Andrews and Martin Shaw (Doyle) did not work and that "the pair did not have the required undercurrent of menace to carry off the concept".
Following that, in 1979, Andrews was the main star of the ITV television series Danger UXB, in which he played a British bomb disposal officer in the London Blitz.
The series first aired in the United Kingdom in 1979 on the ITV network.
He played Lord Sebastian Flyte in the ITV miniseries Brideshead Revisited (1981), for which he won Golden Globe and BAFTA television awards, and was nominated for an Emmy.
His subsequent work includes the leading role of Lord Sebastian Flyte in Brideshead Revisited (1981).
In 1982, he won a Golden Globe and BAFTA TV Award for his performance and was nominated for an Emmy Award.
In the United States, Andrews is best known for his portrayal of the titular character in the television film Ivanhoe as well as that of Sir Percy Blakeney in the film The Scarlet Pimpernel (both 1982).
He also played Professor Higgins in a stage version of My Fair Lady (2003), and Count Fosco in Andrew Lloyd Webber's The Woman in White (2005).
Andrews survived a case of water intoxication in 2003.
The condition, also known as hyponatraemia ("low blood sodium"), occurs when sodium ions in the body are diluted so far that nerves are unable to function properly.
The condition has symptoms similar to those of dehydration, such as headaches, nausea and cramps.
While performing as Henry Higgins in My Fair Lady, Andrews consumed up to eight litres of water a day.
He lost consciousness and spent three days in intensive care.
He was the narrator for a 21st anniversary BBC Radio 2 special broadcast of Cameron Mackintosh's musical Les Misérables, sung by the then West End cast at the Mermaid Theatre in London on Sunday 8 October 2006.
