Nigel Le Vaillant (born 11 June 1958) is a Pakistan-born[1] British actor known for his prominent roles on British television during the 1990s. Le Vaillant's father, an Englishman, moved to Pakistan after service during the Second World War, and worked in the tea industry there, eventually becoming chief executive for Brooke Bond in South Asia. [2] Le Vaillant was born in the country and raised in Karachi.[2] He was educated at a boarding school in England and at St. Peter's Hall College, Oxford, although later stated that, despite his appearance, he "never felt like a Westerner".[2] The family settled in Sussex when le Vaillant was 16 although he regularly returned to Asia, especially India, in the following years.[2] Le Vaillant began acting soon after the family returned to England[2] although he struggled to find work and spent nine years unemployed.[3] Le Vaillant spent three series in BBC One drama Casualty playing Dr. Julian Chapman before starring as the title character in the prime-time BBC series Dangerfield.[4] He quit the show in 1997, having married former Casualty star Nicola Jeffries two years earlier.[3][5] He also appeared in the short-lived sitcom Honey for Tea.[6], and in the 1999 film adaptation of the Philippa Pearce book Tom's Midnight Garden, playing the adult Tom. He left TV acting and spent much of his time in India, while also maintaining a base in Brixton.[5][1] He returned to acting in 2009 to play Edward Heath in the TV drama Margaret.[1] References1. ^1 2 Dangerfield TV star who turned his back on fame 2. ^1 2 3 4 {{Cite news |last= Earls |title= `MY HEART IS IN THE EAST - I DON'T FEEL LIKE A WESTERNER!'
