==Early life==
David Allen Wickins was born in Tilehurst, near Reading, Berkshire on 15 February 1920.〔 The seventh child of an architect-turned-builder who was 64 when David was born, his father was one of the first civilian casualties killed in London at the start of the Nazi-Luftwaffe air raids during the Second World War.〔
His mother was a successful antiques dealer, enabling him to be educated at St George's College, Weybridge, by Josephites. Wickins described his schooling as ''"very academic, very hard"'', though an aptitude for figures allowed him to run a betting book for fellow pupils.〔
