Patric Doonan
George William Doonan was an English stage and screen actor. He was the son of comedian George Vincent Doonan and Doris Mary, and the elder brother of fellow actor, Tony Doonan.
He featured in films of the time such as The [Blue Lamp], Train of Events, and The Cockleshell Heroes but rarely played the leads. An exception was Wheel of Fate, in which he did have the leading role and top billing. 1953 was probably Doonan's peak year in films, as in that same year he also had good supporting roles in The Net and The Red Beret.
He played Detective Sergeant Trotter in The Mousetrap at the Ambassadors Theatre in London for three and a half years.
He committed suicide at the age of 31 by coal gas poisoning in 1958 at his home in Margaretta Terrace, Chelsea. At the time he was engaged to marry actress Ann Firbank, despite the fact that he was already married to actress Aud Johansen.
In 1994 the singer Morrissey referred to Doonan in the song 'Now My [Heart Is Full]'.
