Not too many left from the cast of The Great Escape, a movie I definitely need to rewatch

From the Wiki, only two are left: John Leyton, an instant hit on itv in 1960 as a co-star of "Biggles," and then briefly an admired pop singer (only to get flattened by the juggernaut that was beat music) before going back to acting, and then back to singing in the 1970s... and William Russell, aka companion Ian Chesterton in the first two seasons of "Doctor Who."

Only last year, William Russell appeared in the final Jodie Whitaker episode of Doctor Who, a full 57 years after his previous appearance. 

My abiding memory of David McCallum will always be alongside Joanna Lumley in Sapphire & Steel. A DVD re-watch is probably in order...
