Burt Kwouk, Pink Panther star, dies aged 85

This last few months we seem to have lost many of the real stars. Sadly another one leaves us. Burt Kwouk aged 85 Glad the BBC say Pink Panther star, because it was great interplay with Peter Sellers.

Will be sadly missed.
On super 8 Goldfinger and Revenge Of The Pink Panther A Shot In The Dark.

I still love the smell of film in the morning

R.I.P. Cato, my little yellow friend (or is that racist now?)

Fun part of Pink Panther for sure

Fondly remembered from my Shot In The Dark print I once had.

Do you have the one where he tries to get in a castle over a moat? Something about a piano. He has a ball in chain on his hand, with the ball in the fire, gets hot and he hits a piano. That is a valuable Steinway ... He says "Nout anymour" ... I am not sure if it's Revenge or what. Mix up those titles. I'd love to have that particular one, hilarious

A fellow Mancunian also from birth, I've just found out! Then raised in Shanghai until aged 17.

That is tragic news indeed, he played my favourite character in "Last of the Summer Wine", Entwistle the Electrician. A very versatile
chap, who has been in everything from The Saint to The Avengers, Dr Who to Tenko, anytime an inscrutable Oriental was needed, he
was the lad to do it. He has left a great legacy of work behind him, but very sad to have lost him, God Bless him, R.I.P. Burt.
