Played Smithers in A View To A Kill. Killed by Grace Jones in a Rolls Royce in a French car wash.

I think being born here, being English and fighting in the war counted for a bit more than acting.

But you were talking about his career and how you lost interest in it when you found out he was a US national

He became one before his UK success as it was where he was working.

And by the way, MTBs were dangerous places to be. He was very lucky he survived and I assume pretty brave.

His persona was fake, that's all really.

He was no Roger Moore.

I have seen two Avengers in the flesh. Johanna Lumley and Gareth Hunt. Well New Avengers actually, and I'll throw in Dempsey and Makepeace as well.

Why?

Surely to be expelled from Eton has to carry some weight with you.

An Englishman can live where he chooses. Still an Englishman.

Well yeah, until they give up the identity I suppose.

Anyway it's not as though I have a big issue with old Patrick, no doubt he was fine....I just have a inclination towards the more authentic.

On an East Croydon Station platform last week I heard a staff member help a chap born in Canada, who had moved to New Zealand, helped to pronounce Tulse Hill. He was using tul se Hill.

reminds me of this Two Ronnies sketch.

Kids,tired of being bothered by your pesky parents?
Then leave home, get a job & pay your own bills, while you still know everything.
