This is getting older and older. So old I can't remember what it was all about.

 

It's about Peter Falk, the actor off of The Sopranos. He's looking peaky.

Mind he's still behind in terms of timezones. Or at least his body is.

Can't believe he's not on this years list.

 

I think the deathlist committee just forgot! I hope they aren't suffering from some undiagnosed disease that affects your memory.

With Robert Conrad's death, one less murderer from Columbo.

Can we lock this thread now, to we can let the running gag die, too?

Closing this thread simply closes a resource that at least I'm using.

 

It won't stop the Falk folk.

List of Columbo murderers updated, Conrad and Blackman gone already this year:

 

Clive Revill (b. 1930)

 

 

Have you seen this one, Willz? I saw it on Freeview the other week. It's hilarious. Revill plays a badly accented Irish poet who is secretly a member of the IRA. He kills the gun smuggler who tried to get more money out of him, and then left his traditional home brand whisky as a calling card.

 

It takes Columbo the standard 90 minutes to solve the case, presumably as an excuse to use the department bar tab in tailing the whisky swilling fake Irishman in the pub...

OldWillz had them on incessantly, which I don't mind because the Columbos are so watchable time and again.

 

The one you speak of is probably one of my least favourite features. The accents are tortuous and it dances on the head of a pin to avoid offending the British (terrorism) and the Irish Americans (freedom fighter). So much so, I always end up missing the whole denouement.

 

My favourites are McGoohan as the funeral director and Shatner as the actor with a shady past.

Ah, McGoohan's class. He shows up a lot! That funeral director would have got away with it too if he hadn't gone for the classic "I did it but you can't prove it" gambit.

 

I think my favourite is Jackie Cooper as the corrupt politician because Columbo's "got you now" moment at the end is so great. (The one where he took the bullet from the fake assassination attempt out of the wall hours earlier...)

Just one more thing...

I’m still waiting for my Peter Falk Fan Club t-shirt and I’m holding him personally liable if I don’t get it in time for Christmas.
