There was a fine tribute to the Welsh-born actor-producer
Sir Stanley Baker (1928–76) on the BBC's
Film Programme, including his roles in
Zulu (1964),
The Cruel Sea (1953), and
The Guns of Navarone (1961), as well as in crime films such as
The Criminal (1960),
Robbery (dir. Peter Yates, 1967), and early police proceduralist
Maurice Procter's
Hell Is a City (book 1954; film 1960).
About the image: Stanley Baker as Inspector Martineau in Hell Is a City (dir. Val Guest, 1960)
