During his career he wrote more than 30 plays, most of them comedies and farces. Acting more regularly in the 1980's, he and Leo McKern were a memorable pairing in John Mortimer's witty legal series Rumpole of the Bailey. He also appeared in numerous other hit series, including Minder and Only Fools and Horses. Mr. Benfield Passed away on March 10, 2009, aged 82
