    Yes, very underestimated actor who after the success of Man from Uncle never reached levels of recognition again. NCIS was a nice last role for him. I remember hearing that he was the highest paid actor on tv at that time for that role. John Leyton will now be the last survivor of the Great Escape cast.

    The suave Scot found fame in shows and films like The Man From U.N.C.L.E., The Great Escape and NCIS.

          John was also in Krakatoa East of Java. I think that summarises his film career.

            Also short lived series Sapphire & Steel with Joanna Lumley and a role in Escape from Colditz BBC series which also featured Robert Wagner another living oldie. There is hope for us yet.

              I was reading what the producers of the CBS series NCIS, and thought, what a nice tribute not just as an actor but as a person, when included in a statement by them "But as much as his fans may have loved him, those who worked side by side with David loved him that much more" the many tributes by cast members of NCIS past and present flowing in says a lot.

                It seemed like almost all of my favorite 60's films, had David in the cast ... Hmmm, I wonder if there was a reason for that? Could be! Rest in peace!
