生平Biography
早年生活Early lifeB
orn in Guildford, Surrey and abandoned as a baby, Evans was educated at the orphanage boarding schools run by The Shaftesbury Homes, first at Fortescue House School in Twickenham and then at Bisley Boys' School in Bisley, Surrey. His acting ability was recognised at an early age and he often played the leading roles in school plays. Evans attended the Italia Conti Academy and later won a John Gielgud Scholarship to study at the Central School of Speech and Drama.
埃文斯生于吉尔福德，萨里郡，出生后即被遗弃。埃文斯在孤儿院的寄宿学校接受教育，先在特威克南的Fortescue House School，然后转到了比斯利男校。他的表演天赋在幼时就被发掘，他总是在学校戏剧中扮演主角。埃文斯又进入Italia Conti Academy学习，接着在18岁的时候获得了中央演讲与戏剧学院的John Gielgud奖学金，便离开了孤儿院。
职业生涯CareerHere we go around the Mulberry BushEvans appeared in the film Here We Go Round the Mulberry Bush (1967)
, where he was cast as a sex-starved boy who finds it difficult to lose his virginity. One of his first television credits was in the soap opera Crossroads in 1964.
His first major role was in the sitcom Doctor in the House, based on Richard Gordon's series of novels that had already been adapted as feature films. Evans starred as the earnest but gullible Michael Upton. The series had a remarkable writing crew behind the scenes, including John Cleese and Graham Chapman (of Monty Python), and Graeme Garden and Bill Oddie (of The Goodies), as well as Barry Cryer. Both Graham Chapman and Graeme Garden studied medicine and were qualified doctors.
Doctor in House埃文斯出演的首部电影是《Here we go around the mulberry bush》。在影片中他扮演了一个急于又
难以摆脱处男生涯的小男生Jamie。他出演的第一部电视剧是1964年的肥皂剧《Crossroads》。他第一次在电视剧中出演主角是在著名英国情景喜剧《Doctor in the House》,来源于理查德戈尔登的著名小说系列，曾经被拍摄成为电影。埃文斯在其中出演了热心又容易受骗的迈克尔阿普顿。这个系列有着强大的幕后班底，包括John Cleese和Graham Chapman，还有Graeme Garden和Bill Oddie，Barry Cryer。Graham Chapman和Graeme Garden都曾经学习过医药学。
A sequel to that series quickly followed with Doctor At Large in 1971. Again, the writing talent behind the series was notable, with John Cleese writing some of the episodes - with one in particular providing some of the inspiration for Fawlty Towers, and another writer being Jonathan Lynn (co-writer of Yes Minister and its sequel Yes, Prime Minister). Evans enjoyed working with his fellow actors and later described this period as the best years of his life.
During 1975 he had the lead role in Stanley Long's sex comedy Adventures of a Taxi Driver, but despite the film's success, Evans declined to appear in the sequel.出租车司机的冒险
Doctor系列的续集《Doctor At Large》在1971年推出。埃文斯很喜欢和这一帮同事门一起合作，之后，他说过，这段时期是他人生中最美好的时光。
1975年，他主演了Stanley Long的喜剧《出租车司机的冒险》，但尽管电影成功了，他还是没有出演续集。
Then, in 1977, he starred as Jeremy Brown in the ITV sitcom Mind Your Language, which was about an evening class tutor attempting to teach immigrants English. By today's standards it was perhaps not entirely politically correct, with most of the characters being foreign stereotypes. However, it was immensely popular - both in and outside the UK - especially in the countries the actors portrayed. The series was written by veteran TV scriptwriter Vince Powell, and was adapted for American TV as What a Country! in 1986.
One of Evans' last appearances on British television was in 1982's Emery Presents episode Legacy of Murder, alongside Dick Emery.
1977年，他出演了《Mind Your Language》。他饰演的杰米里.布朗是一所夜校的英文老师，教一些外来移民英文。以现代的角度来看，因为大部分外国人的角色都相当的刻板化，这并不完全合理。但是这部电视剧却相当的成功，不管是在英国还是海外，特别是那些电视剧中有的国家。
之后的职业与死亡 Later career and deathBy the late 1980s, his youthful image was working against him, and he found it difficult to obtain mature acting roles in line with his age.His last role was as Bazzard in the film adaptation of The Mystery of Edwin Drood in 1993. By the late 1990s, he was a minicab driver in Leicestershire, where in 1997 he was found dead in a dilapidated bungalow at the age of 53.
Police discovered the actor's body after going to his house to tell him they had recovered his stolen car. James Leadbitter (18) was arrested over the theft and later accused of attempted murder. He told police he was a friend of Evans, and had visited him on the day he died to say he would not be calling round again. Leadbitter said that the actor became upset and drank half a bottle of whisky. Recording an open verdict, coroner Martin Symington said there was insufficient evidence to prove Evans had intended to kill himself. The charge of attempted murder against Leadbitter was later dropped.
80年代后期，他的娃娃脸使他很难找到成熟的角色，尽管他已经40有余。他人生中最后的一个角色是1993年，在The Mystery of Edwin Drood里饰演的Bazzard。90年代后期，他在莱斯特做起了出租车司机。1997年，他被发现死于自己的公寓，享年53岁。
警察是在去他家调查他被偷的汽车的时候发现他的尸体的。詹姆斯里德比特（18岁）之后被怀疑谋杀而逮捕。詹姆斯对警察说他曾经是埃文斯的一个朋友，而在案发当日他去他家是告诉他他不会再来拜访他了。詹姆斯说埃文斯之后心情很不好，并且喝了半瓶威士忌。埃文斯的死因至今为得到定论，验尸官认为埃文斯并非自杀，但詹姆斯也因为证据不足而释放。
