Biography
Roland Curram was an actor and novelist. His most famous credits include Julie Christie's travelling companion in her Oscar-winning film Darling and expatriate Freddie in the BBC soap opera Eldorado.

Curram came out as gay in the early 1990s, ahead of his role as Freddie, a gay man who had previously been married and had a daughter. Curram left acting in the early 00s to commence a second career as an author with novels such as The Problem with Happiness, Mother Loved Funerals, Man on the Beach, and his memoir, Which Way to Love?
