actor on stage, film and television. He was dark-haired, lean, and in his later years often played characters having a sinister side to their nature.
, England. Evacuated as a child during the Second World War, he lived with three different families in Morecambe
, Lancashire
. In 1948, at age 15, Bell began to act in his first school plays and though he never dominated the performances he nonetheless demonstrated an obvious acting ability.
On leaving school he trained under the renowned Esme Church
at the Bradford Civic Theatre
; fellow pupils included Billie Whitelaw
and Robert Stephens
. He later worked in repertory in Liverpool and Dublin.
Bell made his first film appearances in the 1960s in so-called "kitchen sink dramas", including The Kitchen
and The L-Shaped Room
(opposite Leslie Caron
).
As a young actor, he had a rebellious streak and gained somewhat of a reputation for being a hellraiser who liked a drink. At an important awards ceremony, and well-lubricated, he interrupted a long speech by the guest of honour, Prince Philip
, by yelling "Tell us a funny story" – to the obvious embarrassment of table companions, Richard Attenborough
and Bryan Forbes
. Although (it is said) the Prince took the heckle in good humour with his retort "If you want a funny story, I suggest you engage a professional comic", the incident didn't do Bell's career any favours at the time.
In 1978 he came to worldwide attention portraying Adolf Eichmann
in the Emmy-winning tv-series Holocaust
, and he received a BAFTA nomination for the series Out
, in which he played convicted armed robber, Frank Ross.
In the 1980s and 1990s he appeared in several British movies including Wish You Were Here
, Peter Greenaway

and directed by John Howard Davies
. There were two series (thirteen episodes in all) aired in 1991-92.
Although he tended to eschew live performance, his few stage appearances included a rôle in the 1979 UK première of Bent
, Martin Sherman
's play about homosexuality
, staged at the Royal Court Theatre
. He played the character Horst opposite Ian McKellen
's Max. The play's setting of homosexuals and love in a Nazi death camp was shocking for many theatregoers at the time and uncovered a previously little-examined area of Nazi brutality.
Bell played sexist police officer, Detective Sergeant Bill Otley opposite Dame Helen Mirren
in the first and third series of the critically acclaimed ITV
series Prime Suspect. In 1993, in the third season, he received his second BAFTA nomination. One of his final screen appearances was a supporting role in 2006 in the seventh: Prime Suspect: The Final Act. Viewers could see that he was ill throughout the programme.
