Timeline
He acted in both The Avengers (1961) and The New Avengers (1976).
Many have noted that his slightly husky English voice is astonishingly similar to that of James Mason, and as the sinister Squire Hamilton in Hammer's The Plague of the Zombies (1966), he has been often been compared to fellow Hammer actor Christopher Lee.
Before he was cast in Doctor Who: Snakedance: Part One (1983), he was considered for several other roles in the series, including Bennett in Doctor Who: The Powerful Enemy (1965), Johnny Ringo in Doctor Who: Johnny Ringo (1966), Doctor Fendelman in Doctor Who: Image of the Fendahl: Part One (1977) and Professor Hayter in Doctor Who: Time-Flight: Part Two (1982).
He was considered for the roles of Dr. Hans Fallada, Dr. Armstrong, Dr. Bukovsky, Sir Percy Heseltine, the Pathologist and the Prime Minister in Lifeforce (1985).
John Carson was a hugely prolific actor who appeared constantly on UK screens throughout the mid-50s until the mid-80s. He has appeared alongside many of the UK's stars and became hugely popular as a villain or hero. The secret of John's success was his versatility and his wonderful silky voice. He appeared in 3 Hammer films which led to an ever-increased popularity amongst film fans. John moved to South Africa from England in the 80s and, sadly, his appearances became far more sporadic although he always kept working, even producing and filming his own short documentary, "African Spirit". He the returned to England in 2007 and has been involved in a few films, such as The Deal (2008).
He attended a John Carson Celebration Day in London (July 2009). This was the first time he had talked publicly about his long career in television, film and stage. The day was a huge success and, aside from a showing of two of his films, John gave an interview on stage and then signed autographs. The day was a huge success and this was proved so by a large attendance and the queues for his autograph and photos.
John returned to South Africa in 2014 where he spent time with his family and got to relax a little.
