Redford began his career with Dundee before joining Rangers in February 1980 for a Scottish record fee of £210,000. After six seasons with Rangers, which included four domestic cup trophies, Redford moved to Dundee United, where he collected runners-up medals in the UEFA Cup and Scottish Cup in the space of a few days in 1987. Redford moved on after three years to Ipswich Town, before returning to Scotland with St Johnstone. He was appointed player-manager of Brechin City in 1993 but was sacked a year later. He signed for Raith Rovers as a player in 1994 and collected a final League Cup winners' medal with the Kirkcaldy side before retiring.
Although Redford appeared in Scotland squads, he never added to his youth and under-21 caps. He retired from the game and now runs fishing holidays in Perthshire.[1]

He began acting 35 years ago and has appeared widely in English theatre productions and on television. He played the main role of Alfieri in Arthur Miller's A View from the Bridge. His film career includes The Remains of the Day, The Prince and the Pauper (TV film 2000) and The Legend of the Boogeyman. He also starred in Bread or Blood for the BBC, based on William Henry Hudson's The Shepherd's Life. For Channel 4 he was the elderly Henry VIII in Henry VIII: The Mind of a Tyrant, though he was criticised for being much too small and thin to play Henry VIII.
