"Ian Fleming was born in Melbourne in 1888 as Ian McFarlane. After working in the British provincial theatre, Fleming made his London stage debut in 1915 as Glover in 'On Trial'. From then on he played roles in dozens and dozens of West End productions. Most notably in February, 1925 he played Laertes to Johne Barrymore's Hamlet, and in 1930 he played Jesus of Nazareth in 'The Passing of the Essenes'. He appeared in over 100 British films. In 1931 he was featured as Dr. Watson in a series of three Sherlock Holmes films. Fleming was especially busy during World War II when he was too old for active service. He worked consistently in television until his death on January 1st, 1969." - Karl Levett, 2012.
