Died from pneumonia yesterday 28th.

"Of course I'm serious and don't call me Shirley" - classic

Gutted.

what a shame

He was one extremely funny actor how hilarious was he in aeroplane?

'Red Rock Cider, it's not red, and there's no rocks in it!'

He will be missed.

In 1990, a series of TV adverts, directed by John Lloyd were produced in the style of Police Squad!, and starred Leslie Nielsen in a role similar, but not namechecked as Detective Frank Drebin. In one of these, Nielsen shouts, "Hey! You, over there, in the shadows!" The man steps forward and reveals himself to be Hank Marvin, guitarist with sixties pop group, the Shadows.

its a sad day, he made me laugh an awful lot.

all i know is never bet on the white guy.

girl,is this some kind of bust ??
nielsen,its very impressive but thats not why we're here.

i havent had this much sex since i was a boy scout leader 'ahem' i mean i was dating a lot at the time.

Brilliant!

Heard on the radio this morning. Real shame, absolute legend comedy actory
Also thanks for reminders of some of the classic lines!!

"Can you tell me who you saw"
"it was a white guy with a moustash about 6ft 3""
"thats awful big for a moustash don't ya think"

Genius!

Nice Beaver.

Apparently he died in hospital. It's a big building with patients, but that's not important right now.

thanks,iv'e just had it stuffed.

I'd forgot about that one!

He was also a very competent 'straight' actor for thats how he made his 'name' in feature films 'The Forbidden Planet' comes to mind and in numerous TV roles.

Also good in 'The Poseidon Adventure'.
