I overlooked he also played Lord Chelmsford in the BBC Timewatch series - Zulu the true story. Possibly the only actor who has played 2 characters from the AZW.

Thanks John I didn't know that. To be honest I didn't know he played Coghill. Has anyone got a photo of Christopher as Coghill.

More Information on Christopher Cazenove.

Cazenove was born to Arnold De Lerrison and Elizabeth Laura (née Gurney, 1914–1994)[4] in Winchester, Hampshire, and educated at the Dragon School, Eton College and the Bristol Old Vic Theatre School.[5]

He often portrayed British aristocrats, and first made his name in the early 1970s drama series, The Regiment. Other notable roles included Charlie Tyrrell in the UK series The Duchess of Duke Street and Ben Carrington in the US soap opera Dynasty. He also appeared several times in the British drama series Judge John Deed.
On the stage, he appeared as Henry Higgins in British and American productions of My Fair Lady in 2005 through 2008.
His marriage to actress Angharad Rees lasted from 1973 until she divorced him in 1994. They had two sons, Linford James (20 July 1974[6] — 10 September 1999), who died when he crashed his car on the M11 in Essex,[7] and Rhys William (born 1976).[8] Since 2003, he had been in a relationship with Isabelle Davies.[9]
In February 2010, Cazenove collapsed at his London home. He was taken to St Thomas' Hospital in London, suffering from septicaemia.[10]
He died on 7 April 2010 from the effects of the illness at St Thomas's Hospital, aged 64.[9] The actor "died peacefully" surrounded by his loved ones, said a statement released by his agent, his family and girlfriend Isabel Davis.[11] Cazenove's death occurred six days after the death of John Forsythe, who had played his half-brother, Blake Carrington, in Dynasty.
