From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia
Derren Nesbitt (born June 19, 1935) is an English actor who was in demand in the 1960s and 1970s for roles that combined the muscular and the debonaire. His real name is Derren Horwitz.
Born in London, the son of South African comedian Harry Nesbitt, he was best known for his role as Inspector Jordan in the TV series Special Branch. He also played the warlord Tegana in the Doctor Who serial Marco Polo.
His career was damaged in 1973 when he was convicted of assault causing actual bodily harm on his wife, Anne Aubrey. He thrashed her on the bare buttocks with a leather strap after she told him that she was having an affair with another man. She divorced him shortly afterwards.
