brudenell,

Welcome back! We are always glad to see a repeat customer!

I regret that I am unable to provide you with a more lengthy timeline
for your subject after "I Was Monty's Double" was released. According
to the Internet Movie Database (IMDb), Mr. Clifton-James died just a
few years after his movie came out, on May 8, 1963, in Worthing,
Sussex, England, UK. He was age 64 or 65.

A brief biography for him on the IMDb covers his activities only up
through WWII. However, there is a contact link for the author of the
biography on this page. He might be able to provide more information,
if you are interested in Mr. Clifton-James' activities between the
movie's release and his death shortly thereafter.
