Watched this the other night, having watched it when it was previously aired a year or two ago. Just great to watch the old clips. Things like the Ustinov/Moore opera or listening to Orson Welles talking about Jimmy Cagney. Makes me wonder why BBC4 haven't got a Parkinson slot once a week where they replay one of the old shows. Astonishing the number of people on there who were dead, mind, even from the 90s and 00s shows. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's a great shame he's gone but he had a long life well lived, still had his mental faculties and by all accounts he had about as good a death as you can have. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
