George, a Scottish-born individual with Italian roots, was a fluent Italian speaker. He made his acting debut in the 1984 film Comfort and Joy, marking the beginning of his prolific career throughout the 1980s.
During this period, George featured in the TV pilot Max Headroom in 1985 and the critically acclaimed film The Singing Detective in 1986. His early work laid the foundation for his future success.
In the 1990s, George continued to work in television and film, leaving an indelible mark on the industry. He starred alongside Liam Neeson in the 1990 film Crossing the Line, playing a fighter, and later returned to Italy to film For Roseanna in 1997, where he portrayed a police sergeant.
This experience would serve George well when he joined the cast of the popular police drama series The Bill in 1998, playing the role of Detective Duncan Lennox. His portrayal of a down-to-earth yet effective policeman earned him a fan favorite status, and he remained a part of the show for four years until his departure in January 2003.
Throughout his career, George had the privilege of working alongside renowned actors, including Jean Reno, Chris O'Donnell, and Sandra Bullock. Despite his departure from The Bill, George will always be remembered for his iconic role as Detective Duncan Lennox, one of the most beloved faces on the show in the late 1990s.
