  • Trivia
    Received a Queen's Award for Bravery for protecting a group of spectators (during filming of a first season episode of The Adventures of Robin Hood (1955)) by grabbing the bridle of a horse, which had bolted, and was drawing a cart with fixed axles that could not be steered. The cart ran over Duncan, fracturing his kneecap and putting him out of action for the next eleven episodes.
