Simon MacCorkindale (AP Photo) LONDON (AP) — British actor Simon MacCorkindale, who starred on British television in "Casualty" and in the United States in "Falcon Crest," has died at age 58. MacCorkindale spent some of his childhood in Edinburgh, where his father was stationed for a period, although Peter MacCorkindale's changing postings necessitated 17 moves to places across Europe. My nine year old daughter had a serious crush on him, so a friend who knew Simon invited us to join them one afternoon when he was visiting.

Following his divorce from Fullerton, MacCorkindale began a relationship with actress Susan George, whom he had first met in 1977; they married secretly in Fiji on 5 October 1984[34] and later held a second ceremony with family and friends in Berkshire, England.
