  Leonard Rossiter.com: A Biography
Leonard was based at the Theatre Royal, Bristol until the summer of 1961, with the Old Vic Company, by which time he had had his first taste of performing in major Shakespearean productions, including The Comedy Of Errors, Richard II, The Tempest and Romeo and Juliet, which he performed at the famous Baalbek festival.
Leonard's love of fine wines, generated by his former director, and later Reginald Perrin co-star John Barron way back in the 1950s, resulted in him adding another floor to his house: "Only a man who could so closely match Reggie would put his cellar in the attic!", remembers John.
Leonard was always direct and honest about what he expected from the relationship and never gave her the impression of being unhappy in his marriage.
