Actor Philip Franks starred in TV's The Darling Buds of May and The Hound of the Baskervilles at the TRB in March.
He said: "The last time I appeared at the Theatre Royal Brighton was in a farce and the West Pier burnt down.
"This time it was a thriller although I made sure that The Royal Pavilion was well insured."
