Trubshawe was very close friends with fellow British actor David Niven, serving together at Malta and Dover, and was best man for both of Niven's weddings, and is constantly referred to in Niven's memoirs The Moon's a Balloon, where Niven refers to finding out he would be working with him in The Guns of Navarone as 'A lovely bonus for me.'
