Hillerman won an Emmy for the role in 1987.〔 The character of Higgins appeared in two other television shows: ''Simon & Simon'' in 1982, and ''Murder, She Wrote'' in 1986. In addition, a 1991 episode of ''Quantum Leap'' included a ''Magnum P.I.'' fan watching a scene with Higgins in it. ==John Hillerman and Simon Brimmer== Although the character is English, the actor playing him, John Hillerman, was born in Texas and served in the US Air Force. Hillerman practiced the English accent in onstage productions in Ohio before taking the accent to Hollywood. The character we know as Jonathan Higgins began life as Simon Brimmer on TV productions of Ellery Queen; which were the 1975 TV movie ''Ellery Queen: Too Many Suspects'' and the 1975-76 TV series Ellery Queen. Brimmer was an arrogant and self-assured character who used these personality traits as a foil to Ellery Queen (Jim Hutton).〔 (【引用サイトリンク】 title = John Hillerman as Simon Brimmer ) 〕 Hillerman says playing a snob comes easy to him. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Jonathan Higgins」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
