Timeline
Beaten by Alan Badel to the part of Romeo in a production of Romeo and Juliet at the Old Vic in 1951.
The lean, rather emaciated-looking John Bennett studied acting at the Central School of Speech and Drama in London. After years in repertory theatre, he made his feature debut in 1960, and, thereafter, appeared regularly on British screens. He was prone to perform in diverse ethnic guises, often adopting heavy make-up and using his penchant for accents and dialects.
One of his first notable appearances was as the evil Injun Joe in the BBC children's series The Adventures of Tom Sawyer (1960).
He came to be much in demand for crime-time TV series, like The Avengers (1961), The Saint (1962) and Z Cars (1962), effortlessly switching from menacing roles to law enforcement.
In feature films, he was generally confined to background support, except for his titular lead in the little-seen drama The Barber of Stamford Hill (1963).
He twice guested in Doctor Who (1963), giving one of his most indelible performances as the Fu Manchu look-alike, Li H'sen Chang, an evil Chinese magician and hypnotist roaming Victorian-era London in search of victims to aid in his master's reincarnation, in "The Talons of Weng-Chiang". Bennett managed to avoid the pitfalls of caricature and gave a thoroughly convincing performance, managing to portray the arch villain with dignity and, ultimately, even a degree of sympathy.
He also provided an effective thread connecting the various vignettes of The House That Dripped Blood (1971), as the sceptical investigating Chief Inspector.
Bennett also appeared as Joseph Goebbels in Hitler: The Last Ten Days (1973), French Prime Minister Georges Clemenceau in the excellent miniseries Fall of Eagles (1974), and as Greek historian and philosopher Xenophon in I, Claudius (1976).
He and John Cater acted together in both I, Claudius (1976) and The House on Garibaldi Street (1979). In the former, Cater's character worked undercover to cause someone to be executed and Bennett's character was a physician. In the latter, Bennett's character worked undercover to cause someone to be executed and Cater's character was a physician.
He was considered for the roles of Dr. Hans Fallada and Dr. Bukovsky in Lifeforce (1985).
