Now wondering what happened to that royal portrait Rolf did.

Alberon

The balance of opinion seems to be that Harris himself has it.


Poobum

Aww. Watched this recently about how he got cast in Lynch's Dune.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N5JbiN7Xc80

Small Man Big Horse

Aw, that's a shitter, loved him in Quantum Leap of course, but he really was great in pretty much everything he did.

The Culture Bunker

Quantum Leap was a big show for me in my early teens - his other big roles aside (ie Blue Velvet, Dune), the role I remember him most for is the sleazy lawyer in 'To Live and Die in LA'.

Actually, I just remembered he was in 'Paris, Texas' too.

To Die In L.A ( If That's where he lived, like).


Malcy

Was surprised at him being 85! Thought he was much younger.

Aw man, he was amazing in blue velvet.
People are dying a lot lately. No good'll come of it. You mark my words.

A star since the 40s though.
THe BOy with Green Hair - which for a British comedy link, was used in the Staggering Stories of Ferdinand de Bargos.
They got a lot of mileage out of Pat O'Brien's Irish music hall granda.

A tragedy tonight.
( Well,  not that much of one, I mean, he was 91 years old)

The east side of the mortuary was full, so he had west side storage.

Twonty Gostelow

I don't think anyone's mentioned Henry Woolf yet, who's died at 91.
Associate of Harold Pinter but possibly better known as the gangster Frankie Barrow in Steptoe, and for his roles in RWT and being The Rutles' Maharishi, Arthur Sultan.

And inevitably he was in Dr Who, as the Collector in "The Sun Makers" in 1977 - there's a nice clip at that link.

Mr Banlon

The curse of the 91 club strikes again.
