Long careers are rarer than they look, and Forbes Collins has become a familiar face with a body of work built one job at a time. He has been working on screen for more than 53 years. The role of New Tenant in 'Tess' is the one that keeps being brought up. Viewers may also know him from 'Biggles'. 1973 is the year the filmography opens. More of the credits fall under drama than under anything else.
