Michael Caine returns to scene of first stage role

Film star Sir Michael Caine was today looking back on 60 years of acting after visiting the village school room where, as a 10-year-old wartime evacuee, he performed his first speaking role.

Sir Michael, 70, returned to his old school in North Runcton, Norfolk, yesterday to commemorate his performance as Baron Fitznoodle in village’s 1943 pantomime, Cinderella.
