I regularly read Robert’s book ‘The Pleasures of Age’. It comforts me and makes me smile.

Wonderful actor

[@CrowIIII]

Saw him among the invested spectators at Newmarket one day. Good clothes not too carefully applied.

[@laytonjones2093]

Great character actor

[@58christiansful]

Always great fun to see him. He was always himself, unashamedly. Funny as Uncle Pumblechook in Great Expectations from the 70s - sounds his usual upperclass self, yet he is uncle to either blacksmith Gargery or Mrs G, and has Xmas lunch with them.

He is so clearly Jewish. Get a Leon Britten vibe too.
