One of my favourite comedy actors has gone. :bigcry:

Who can forget 'Airplane' and the 'Naked Gun' movies ? :)

Thanks for the laughs Lesley.

You sure you've got the 'sex' right, Graham? :Erm: ... I'd always believed the late actor's name was spelt Leslie Nielsen. ;)

Leslie Nielsen. ;)

:yeahthat: ... because when the name is spelled as Lesley it [usually] means the person's female.

:idea: Does anyone remember Leslie Nielson ?

He apparently died in 2010. :)

Anyway, I'll leave you to discuss, as I have to throw some old newspapers out...

I've just finished reading a newspaper about the Dunkirk evacuation :yikes:

It was a replica, bought it and a few others on Amazon .... great to read :xxgrinning--00xx3: ..... Get up in the morning, shoot down a few Nazi's, and home in time for tea :D .... different attitude of the young in those days!!

You :rolleyes: ... being of a certain vintage, :D Graham ... will remember ANOTHER Leslie - Leslie Sands - who played Detective Chief Inspector Barlow's boss in early episodes of 'Z Cars', and later featured in his own 'Police Series' as a rural Yorkshire copper... Sgt Cluff. ;)
