      Yet another hugely talented person taken from us. RIP Andrew, and thank you for many, many laughs.

        Always liked Fawlty Towers, shows its age when the cast start dieing, thing is it only seemed like a few years ago.
        Understand he was 86.
        Seemed like a nice bloke.

            Yep, it's been a hugely bad year for losing some great actors, musicians, and the like. Andrew also starred in many other things including a great role as Dr Watson. Let's hope he's in Fawlty Heaven.:love30:

              He helped create one of THE funniest characters I've ever seen, and still makes me laugh no matter how many times I've seen it.
              RIP Andrew.

                A sad loss, feels like someone we all grew up with.

                R.I.P.
