Very sad news indeed.Another well respected member of the film industry
has gone, leaving a legacy of film that serve as an epitaph second
to none. Fans of sci-fi may remember his appearance with Brian
Donlevy in "Quatermass 2" or " Enemy From Space" as known
in US. He was husband to the lovely Nanette Newman for many
years and has two daughters, Emma & Sarah,our condolences to them at this
very sad time. R.I.P.
