    What a lovely guy and a talented actor. I always thought Richard would have made a brilliant Doctor Who.

    I understand that Richard now resides in Brinsworth House in Middlesex, a retirement home for actors. He was such a brilliant actor and 'Man about the House' is one of my all time favourite sitcoms.

      @georgfriedrichhandel4390 11 років тому +15

      Yes that is correct. Most Americans don't realize that Man About the House and Robin's Nest were precursors to two US sitcoms (one of them is Three's Company). It's ironic because so many people think that US pop culture is the dominant cultural influence in the world but it has been influenced to a large degree by British pop culture. So the latter has contributed to US "domination".

      I met Brian Murphy who played George in Man about the house & George & Mildred on a tube in Kings Cross about 15 years ago. He told me that Richard was in a care home for actors, I was surprised because Brian is 10 years older and he’s out & about on the tube in London and Richard was in a care home. 15 years ago Richard would of been 62 which I recall thinking at the time was very young to be in a care home

    In his prime he was so falling out of bed natural at acting very reminiscent of Richard Beckinsale, funny, the guy next door, the bloke down the pub. Which is why he was so believable and so beloved.

    He played many, many parts from a very young age and was one of the best comedy actors Britain had. He worked in some of the most famous shows in the 60s / 70s and 80s and was loved by everyone. Now living a quiet life in a home for actors. All his fans here in the UK wish him well and hope one day he can return to TV. All we have of him now are repeats on TV and box sets of DVD`s. God bless you Richard.

    It's so sad to think of his health-problems - however, it won't take away the good memories he brings !. Always such a happy, easy-going guy - yet watching him just now in 'Cleopatra' (truly one of Hollywood's all-time great films !) playing a straight-role seems strange seeing as he's always been more associated with comedy but it just shows his range of talent. Would love to see a reunion with him, Paula Wilcox (?) and Sally Thomsett - even if it was just a talk-show format, it would be great as those 3 just seemed to 'bounce' off each other so well !. Whatever, I truly wish him all the best !

    I like Terry Wogan and I'm glad he's been around the BBC for so long but he was an awkward TV interviewer. I remember watching the Tonight Show in the US in about 1995, and Quentin Tarantino spent a part of his interview with Jay Leno complaining about Terry Wogan's interviewing technique - called him aggressive - of course, no one in the audience in LA would have a clue who Terry Wogan was. As for O'Sullivan, I do hope he continues to mend - good luck Richard.

    • @paulmanly3694

    Christopher Warbey and his friend Richard O'Sullivan were onscreen together very early on, as two of the children singing at Sunday school with other children (including star of the film Andrew Ray) in “The Yellow Balloon”, filmed in the summer of 1952 and released in 1953. It was one of the first films to be passed with the then recently introduced 'X' certificate, which meant that no one under the age of 16 years was allowed into a cinema to see it. So neither Christopher or Richard or Andrew or any of the others there who were from the Corona Academy were allowed to see themselves on the screen in that film at that time. Richard would have been 8 years old at that time,

    It's absolutely shocking how quickly Richard O'Sullivan aged!
    He is only forty-one in this 1989 interview, yet he looks like
    a man in his late sixties! At seventy today he looks and
    walks like my dad did at ninety, and the tremendous weight
    he is carrying these days isn't helping matters any. I pray that
    he can regain his health (seventy isn't considered hat old these days)
    both physical and mental. He was a truly fabulous actor and just
    drop dead gorgeous in his younger days.

Luckily after a few years experimenting myself I got sober in '99...... Anyone interested in AA. Have a look here will explain more ..... Cheers Tom McC

In Ireland where i am from we put flouride in our water which messes with t levels, although its not have as bad here as it is the US, their food is swimming in estrogen thats why they have to get British, Irish or Aussies to play superheros in their movies, Amercian menare so boyish now they can no longer be taken seriously in the roles.

      Try organic foods, your T levels will return to normal naturally. Im not saying i eat organic food or anything, im just saying thats why people looked older back in the day. Its not as bad here as it is in the US anyway, even the plastic wrappings and bottles there have estrogen mimickers in them. Where are all the American renegades gone? At least when i was a boy we had River Phoenix, Johnny Depp, Rob Lowe, all cool rebel types, today we have Shya le Bouf.

    What were the health issues that he started to suffer from in the 1980's? Believe it or not, but the guy who played George Roper actually was only about 10 years older than Richard at the time, but looked old enough to be his dad at least. The old fella out of Steptoe was only 49 he first time he played the role..

      Thesals1 being a very highly paid tv actor for year's and spending money like it's going out of fashion is dumb.
      His fee for me and my girl was epprox £17,000 an episode, he'd have made a few million over his career that lasted from the early 50s to the late 80s.
      Films major tv sitcoms, commercials plus various other highly paid jobs like tv, radio and magazine interviews.

    I still think he was underused as he is a brilliant comic and a real actor, unlike todays production line cardboard cut-outs with no personally and if it wasn't for their hairdos, we wouldn't know one from another. Thank you Richard for many brilliant performances both on the big and small screen. Best of wishes to you

      Roger Williams Just watched him in "Spare The Rod", a wonderful film with Max Bygraves and Donald Pleasence just shown on Talking Pictures. His acting was excellent. Would love to meet him and ask him about his career. Suffered a mild stroke myself at 48 so can empathise with him. .
