Little factual bites on Simon’s career and life

(in no particular order!)

• Simon MacCorkindale is a British actor who made his big break in Death on the Nile in the late 70′s

• Simon has a small but distinctive scar under his right eye, which he got in a cricket accident when he was 13. He has highlighted the scar and used it as part of his performance on several occasions as a trait of his character, most notably in Manions of America (I, shelliwood, have a slight unhealthy interest with this scar.  No, Really!)
• Simon was born in Ely, Cambridgeshire on the 12th February 1952, which would make Simon an Aquarius (like me!)
