Stephen Whittaker (28 June 19477 February 2003) was a British actor and director.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Stephen Whittaker )〕 He worked largely in British film and television,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Stephen Whittaker )〕 and trained as an actor at London's Corona Academy. He began his career aged 17, as a "bad boy" in the film ''To Sir With Love'' (1966), and in the classic BBC ''Doctor Who'' adventure ''The Web of Fear'', as a soldier battling Yeti in the London Underground. 〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Doctor Who: Lost episodes Enemy Of The World and Web of Fear discovered )〕 In 1985 Whittaker took a director's training course, and directed a short training film which he sent to John Schlesinger (who had directed him in ''Yanks''). Schlesinger suggested him to producer Mark Shivas as director for Channel 4's drama trilogy ''What If It's Raining?'', written by Anthony Minghella. This was the beginning of a directing career of prestigious TV and film work. Shortly before Whittaker's death, writer Julian Fellowes spoke of him as, "the most exciting director in the industry." 〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Obituary: Stephen Whittaker )〕 In 2001 he filmed his final project ''The Rocket Post'', a romantic drama set on a remote Scottish island. The film had severe funding problems, and was eventually released in 2006, three years after his death. The credits bear a dedication to his memory. 〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Stephen Whittaker )〕 ==Director== * ''The Rocket Post'' (2004) * ''Sons and Lovers'' (2003) (TV) * ''The Life and Adventures of Nicholas Nickleby'' (2001) (TV) * Dalziel and Pascoe (1 episode, 2000)- "A Sweeter Lazarus" (2000) TV episode producer Andy Rowley * ''Grafters II'' (1999) TV mini-series * ''Grafters'' (1998) TV mini-series (unknown episodes) * ''A Life for a Life'' (1998) (TV) * ''Stone, Scissors, Paper'' (1997) (TV) * ''Tangier Cop'' (1997) ... aka Heartbreak City * ''Stone Cold'' (1997) Producer Andy Rowley BBC ''Scene'' * ''Hearts and Minds'' (1995) (TV) * ''Killing Me Softly'' (1995) (TV) * ''Closing Numbers'' (1993) * ''Inspector Morse'' (1 episode, 1993) - "The Day of the Devil" (1993) TV episode * ''Agatha Christie's Poirot'' (1 episode, 1992) - "Death in the Clouds" (1992) TV episode * ''Portrait of a Marriage'' (1990) (TV) * ''Eurocops: Hunting the Squirrel'' (1988) (TV), crime drama written by Billy Hamon, starring John Benfield * ''What If It's Raining'' (1985) (TV) 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「Stephen Whittaker」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
