I thought he first came to public notice by appearing (in a leading role) on the stage in a number of "Whitehall Farces" - named for the Whitehall Theatre, not the UK political establishment! That would have been in the late 1950s/early 60s?? But there's no mention here.... I can't provide any detail, so perhaps my memory is wrong? <span style="font-size: smaller;" class="autosigned">— Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[Special:Contributions/213.246.83.116|213.246.83.116]] ([[User talk:213.246.83.116|talk]]) 09:46, 9 February 2013 (UTC)</span><!-- Template:Unsigned IP --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot--> |

Picture
Just added a not-very-good shot I took of Briers at a Who convention a couple of years ago. I'd welcome someone else replacing this with a better-quality and suitably free image, but at least it's a start! Gusworld (talk) 00:18, 3 January 2008 (UTC)
