And Gorden Kaye dies the same day as Angela Merkel announces at a press conference that the fabled stolen Nazi artwork referenced in Allo Allo is finally found.

Excellent for Forest in the late 60's and unlucky only to win one England cap before the transition to becoming a female.

I can honestly say that if it wasn't for this gem I would never have even heard of her...

I agree, both Elephant Man and Naked Civil Servant are miles better in my opinion.

Agreed.Another vote for his TV potrayal of Quentin Crisp in The Naked Civil Servant also his film role in Midnight Express.

 

[MK Shrimper]

Everyone is allowed an opinion, however doesn't make it right. And you're not. :raspberry:

 

[Supernaut]

Nonsense. Alien is an all time classic of cinema and in my eyes, far better than anything else you two have mentioned.

Agreed. Hurt never put in a bad performance IMO, but to suggest that Alien isn't in the top 3 films of his career is madness.

 

[OldBlueLady]

Would suggest Hollywood agrees with TUIB and I as two of those we mentioned are the ones he received his Oscar nominations for! :raspberry:

That'll be the Oscars that didn't think Alfred Hitchcock was good enough to ever win best director? Right...
