David MacLennan (19 June 1948 – 13 June 2014), was a Scottish actor, director, producer and writer.
MacLennan was born on 19 June 1948 to Isabel Margaret (née Adam), a doctor and public health activist, and Sir Hector MacLennan, a renowned gynaecologist and obstetrician. He was the youngest of four children, including his brother Robert Maclennan, a Liberal Democrat life peer, and sister Elizabeth MacLennan, an actor with whom he would work throughout his life. Growing up, Jimmy Logan was a neighbour and influence. MacLennan went to Drumtochty Preparatory School, and Fettes College in Edinburgh, before attending University of Edinburgh without taking a degree.[1] His first marriage, to Ferelith Lean, was later dissolved. In 1988 he married again, to the actress Juliet Cadzow. They had one son, Shane.
