RIP Your Lordship1 -
Saw him live at The Players Theatre some years ago in a skit with Sheila Burnett singing "Busy Bee". Hilairous, brilliant and unforgettable. RIP Peter and thank you for that warming, lifelong memory.2

Brilliant actor, tremendous in any sort of role.
First saw him recognisably in Rumpole of the Bailey, and thought he was excellent in the Irish RM.
