The Great Escape, Maverick, Rockford Files. Loved him "reprising" his role in the Mel Gibson movie. Link

Why men throw their lives away attacking an armed Witcher... I'll never know. Something wrong with my face?

RIP, sir.
My favourite movies with him are The Great Escape, Grand Prix, and Space Cowboys.
In all my years I've never seen the like. It has to be more than a hundred sea miles and he brings us up on his tail. That's seamanship, Mr. Pullings. My God, that's seamanship!

RIP. I loved his role as the grandfather in "8 Simple Rules".

Oh no! So many great roles! Of the more recent ones, I thought Space Cowboys was really good, almost a fictional, light-hearted sequel to The Right Stuff. As for his older work, it's a clear favorite, part of the best 1-2 punch of racing movies:  He will really be missed.

his passing makes me sad. I always looked forward to Maverick as a kid. One of the few shows that I planned around so I wouldn't miss it, back before we could record and time shift.

RIP! S! The Rockford Files theme music was one of my favorite and most memorable pieces of all TV theme music!

Comfortable evenings watching The Rockford Files in the company of my late parents. Very happy times.

Mae hen wlad fy nhadau yn annwyl i mi,
Gwlad beirdd a chantorion, enwogion o fri;
Ei gwrol ryfelwyr, gwladgarwyr tra m�d,
Dros ryddid collasant eu gwaed.
Gwlad, gwlad, pleidiol wyf i'm gwlad.
Tra m�r yn fur i'r bur hoff bau,
O bydded i'r hen iaith barhau.
