British actor Mark Burns was cast in leading roles in several major films of the 1960s, 1970s and 1980s. Seldom called upon to be anything more than devilishly handsome in period costumes, Burns was seen in Charge of the Light Brigade (1967), Death in Venice (1971), Juggernaut (1974) and The Wicked Lady (1983). If nothing else, Mark Burns deserves commendation for stamina above and beyond the call of duty. Burns managed to survive no fewer than two films based on novels by Jackie Collins and starring Jackie's sister Joan Collins: The Stud (1978) and The Bitch (1979).
