They Got What They Wanted (1947) was his first appearance in a revival of Louis D'Alton's play They Got What They Wanted (1947).

Ellis soon moved to London, where he was cast as Dandy Jordan in the BBC TV version of Stewart Love's "Angry" play that was deemed "unsuitable for people of a nervous disposition."
