The David Farrar story is more complicated than you say. On the back of his starring performances in British films (and top of my list is the demon-wracked bomb disposal officer Sammy Rice in "The Small Back Room"), he tried to make it in Hollywood. There were a few under-written parts in second-rate films and he returned briefly to the UK. He wasn't able to resume where he had left off (apart from a supporting role in a Cliff Richard vehicle), so his decision to retire to South Africa was understandable. (From memory, but I believe substantially correct.)
