      Born in Orpington, Kent, Simon Cain, while attending Banstead Residential School, volunteered to go to Australia at the age of eleven. At Kingsley Fairbridge Farm School in Western Australia he was taught about life in the outback. At sixteen, he set off on a six-year trip around Australia, moving between jobs, including sheep shearer and motorbike mechanic.

      While living in Perth in 1960, earning a living selling television sets, he became interested in amateur dramatics and, later, moved to Sydney where he began appearing in small parts on stage and in films, as well as making the occasional commercial. Other offers soon came his way and he appeared in several episodes of the Australian television Western, Whiplash, and films such as Summer of the Seventeenth Doll, The Sundowners and Coast Watchers. Additional credits during the early 1960s included television adaptations of The Merchant of Venice and the stage plays Show Boat and Once Upon a Mattress.

      He returned to England in 1964 and while working for Schweppes secured a part in a play for the Little Theatre Club at London’s St Martin’s Theatre, paving the way for a string of television roles in shows such as Gideon’s Way.

      Other television work has seen him in shows such as Doctor Who, Ryan International, Manhunt and Doomwatch, while his film credits include The Blood Beast Terror, School for Love, The Chairman and, in 1969, The Most Dangerous Man in the World.

      He was posted to Kenya during World War Two, serving as an RAF wireless operator, after which he returned to England and, due to lack of acting work, opened a club, The Buckstone.

      In 1952 he was offered the title role in the BBC series Billy Bunter of Greyfriars School, which ran for ten years and brought him widespread recognition.
