==Biography==
He lived in his adopted home town of [[Stratford-upon-Avon]] for many years, where he was a familiar face to locals. He also had several minor roles at the [[Royal Shakespeare Theatre]] in the town. Prior to becoming an actor, Henderson was a dental technician in the [[British Army|Army]], a detective sergeant with the [[Essex Constabulary]], and an insurance salesman.<ref name=obit>{{cite news|author1=Anthony Hayward|title=OBITUARY: Don Henderson|url=https://www.independent.co.uk/news/people/obituary-don-henderson-1257860.html|work=The Independent|access-date=1 May 2016|date=24 June 1997}}</ref>

==Career==
Henderson is best remembered for his role as the fictional detective [[George Bulman (fictional character)|George Bulman]]. This character featured in three TV series ''[[The XYY Man]]'' in the mid-1970s; the later ''[[Strangers (1978 TV series)|Strangers]]'' that saw Bulman rise from Detective Sergeant to Detective Chief Inspector and, in 1985, the series ''[[Bulman]]'' saw George retired from the police and pursuing a career as a [[horologist]]. He also starred in the popular TV drama series ''[[Warship (1973 TV series)|Warship]]''.

Henderson made little money from his role in Star Wars—£300 for one day of filming. He also missed out on $2000 for his copy of the Star Wars script:
<blockquote>"I have only once been recognised as having been in Star Wars, and that was when I was making a film in Los Angeles. Somebody in the hotel I was staying at offered me $2000 for my copy of the Star Wars script. As I growled at him in amazement, he took that as a refusal, or that he had offered too little and eventually went up to an offer of $5000! Sadly, as with all my used scripts, I had given it to my kids to scribble and draw on."<ref name="blogspot1"/></blockquote>

==Death==
Henderson died of [[Head and neck cancer|throat cancer]]. His first wife Hilary died in 1977; his second wife and widow was the actress [[Shirley Stelfox]], with whom he appeared professionally many times.
