    A true national treasure, 93 years old and had a fantastic life so nothing much to mourn really. Just seemed like a really nice and talented chap. Anyone around my age (late 40s - early 50s) will have had their childhoods enriched by Bernard.

    A wonderful actor who leaves a real legacy behind him.

    So many great roles, but I thought he was outstanding as Wilf in Dr. Who.

    I loved how he read Arabella’s Raven and when I read that to my kids I channelled Cribbo. RIP Nevermore!

    Not to forget David Warner who has passed on as well with cancer. Prominent roles in The Omen, Tron and Titanic and a well stocked portfolio in many British TV series. And as the Evil Genius in Time Bandits.

    I believe it was the shock of being offered a 5 year contract to be LCB at WFC that did for him
