He was also a fine 'serious' actor . My favourite cameo of his was when he played Sir Giles Lynchwood in Blott on the Landscape.

I loved him in Blott on the Landscape

[furrypusscat]

All the great actors are sadly leaving us with very few good replacements. RIP George.

[rockyracoon]

Blott On The Landscape is a film? Why did I not know this.

[hc4361]

It was a tv series with a superior cast including David Suchet, Julia McKenzie and Geraldine James.

Well worth watching

[sandyRoe]

A BBC TV series, I think.

5 hours running time - a bargain

There are some truly eye boggling scenes in it - George Cole as you've never seen him before
