Gary Frederick Holton〔Births, Marriages and Deaths Index for England & Wales〕 (22 September 1952 – 25 October 1985) was an English singer-songwriter, musician and actor from London. He was the frontman of the band Heavy Metal Kids (1972–77), he worked with Casino Steel (1981–84), and played the part of Wayne in the UK television comedy ''Auf Wiedersehen, Pet'' (1983–85). Holton died from an overdose of morphine combined with alcohol in 1985. == Early life == Gary was the first child of Ernie and Joan Holton, and grew up in Kennington, South London. Whilst musically talented – he was first in a rock band as a schoolboy at Beaufoy School, Lambeth〔Report by Toby Neal. Interview with Holton's father, who came to live in Shropshire in 1975.〕 – Gary's real ambition was to act. Early on in his life, he began working in the theatre world with the Sadlers Wells Opera Company, debuting in opera appearances aged eleven, and was with them for three years. In 1966 he had a part in Congreve's ''Love For Love'' with Laurence Olivier, and at fourteen played the title role in Menotti's ''Amahl and the Night Visitors''. Soon after leaving education at Westminster School, he joined the Old Vic Theatre Company, and from there he went on to work with the Royal Shakespeare Company at Stratford. At seventeen, he joined the touring company of ''Hair'', and remained with them for two years. When he left the Company, his musical talents led him to front the rock band Heavy Metal Kids as vocalist.
