Timeline
Sir Geoffrey Holt Seymour Jackson (4 March 1915 – 1 October 1987) was a British diplomat and writer.
He entered the Foreign Service in 1937 and served in Beirut, Cairo, Baghdad, Basra, Bogotá and Bern before being appointed Minister to Honduras in 1956.
The next year he was promoted to ambassador when the post was upgraded.
He was Consul-General at Seattle for the north-western US states 1960–1964 and Minister (Commercial) in Toronto 1965–1969.
Geoffrey Jackson was appointed CMG in the New Year Honours of 1963 and knighted KCMG in 1971 after his release from captivity.
In 1969 he became ambassador in Uruguay.
In 1971, during his tenure as British ambassador to Uruguay, he was kidnapped by the Tupamaros guerrillas and ultimately released after eight months of captivity.
Jackson received his education at Bolton School and Emmanuel College, Cambridge.
He was kidnapped by Tupamaros guerrillas in 1971, enduring a captivity of nine months.
Released in September 1971, he retired at the end of 1972 with the honorary rank of Deputy Under-Secretary of State at the Foreign Office, having served for 35 years in the diplomatic service, of which 31 had been spent abroad.
Jackson was kidnapped by Tupamaros guerrillas on 8 January 1971 in Montevideo, Uruguay.
He was released after eight months of captivity, on 9 September 1971.
Three decades later it became known that Edward Heath, the UK Prime Minister at that time, negotiated a deal for Jackson's release, brokered by Salvador Allende, President of Chile, who was in contact with the Tupamaros rebels.
£42,000 was paid for Jackson's release.
He served for five years, 1976–80, on the BBC's General Advisory Council (abolished in the 1990s) and was chairman of a BBC advisory group on the social effects of television.
