Ian Carmichael

Post by Marian » Sat Feb 06, 2010 4:16 pm

I've just read that veteren Britsh actor Ian Carmichael has died at the age of 89. He was very popular in his early comedy films like "Privates Progress." I think he was in one or two of the Doctor films too.
He went on to star in television series like Jeeves and Wooster.
R.I.P.

Very sad to hear this news.
A few years ago Ian Carmichael kindly opened a charity bazarr for The Ealing branch of the National Autistic Society. A real gentleman.
R.I.P. Ian Carmichael.

I was also sad to see this news. He was a true English gentleman. Have fond memories of watching his balck-and-white 50s and 60s films on TV when a child. Rest In peace, Ian.
