I went to the theatre to watch a play with my late wife several years ago. While we were waiting for the performance to start, this chap came and sat next to me. I was sure that I recognised him, but couldn't think who he was. He didn't seem to know me, so my wife and I made small talk with him, but we were still none the wiser. About 40 minutes in to the performance, he stood up and started heckling the actors on the stage. I was so embarrassed to be sat next to him but after a few seconds, I realised that he was an actor in the play! The heckling was scripted and he made his way towards the stage, where he joined the other actors and continued the play. The actor was Michael Jayston, who I recognised from his numerous TV appearances. I had been sat next to him for nearly an hour! I was so saddened to learn of his passing, which also reminded me of my late wife and this story.
Great story. Check out Michaels performances in the "thriller" tv series. Always admired actors doing acting from the audience, etc. Must take b-lls of steel.
Wonderful story! I just posted, rewatching Tinker, Tailor.... and often return to films such as Cromwell, Nicholas & Alexandra. And I am about to work my way through Thriller!
You should have stood up and given him a good talking to, and walked up onto the stage and joined in on an adhoc basis. That would have foced those lazy actors to be a bit more creative for their wages !

I totally agree, as an older guy (66). More genuine love, much less war, and positivity in the right direction is much needed nowadays. Respects to the families and ex colleagues of the celebrated actors who have passed away thus far in 2024. Bernard Hill and Georgina Hale were particular favourites of mine, but, in essence, the highlighted people were all superb within the entertainment industry.
Kenneth Cope played a bit of a Jack-the-Lad in Corrie....Jed Stone. Wasn't his landlady "Martha Longhurst." ...(?) long time foil to the sharp tongue of Ena Sharples? I can still see them in the "Snug" with their Milk Stouts! He was in the soap in the 60's and came back to it 42 years later! Wow! (Thank U IMDB) (Or was it...Minnie Caldwell...His landlady.... Got me thinking now!)(I seem to recall that Martha Longhurst was a a rather sour cynical woman...whereas Minnie was benign.)
I saw Nicholas Ball filming an advert in Central London and met David Soul while waiting to cross the road on Cannon Street, I plucked up the courage and said " why would anyone leave sunny LA for rainy grey skies of old London. He looked at the sky then back at me and we both laughed.

Living in Canada now but born and raised in Scotland, I'm somewhat disconnected from the news of the passing of such of British talent, and to be sure we've all lost a wealth of talent in 2024. Rest in peace all.
I am also a Scot who lives in Canada. Amazing how easy it is to keep connected -- I read a few British papers and use the BBC website every day. And I watch virtually nothing but British TV (few honourable exceptions, mostly Australian but the odd US and Canadian show) so these people are familiar, as is the news of the passing of most of them.
I loved Glynis Johns, and her role as Miranda and as ‘Madame Stella’ the high diver in a mystery thriller. She was a very talented actress and very pretty. One of our best. She should have been given a dame hood.
Also John Savident had a minor role in a clockwork orange he plays one of the people sent to help the writer take revenge on Alex. I just think that's so cool how soooo many soap actors have had kind of hollywood experiences and they are all connected in these weird little ways xxxxx🎉🎉🎉🎉😊😊😊❤❤
Thank You for mentioning the death of Christian Rodska, I didn't know he had passed as it was not mentioned in any local newspapers, he was born and raised not far from me in Cullercoats, near to Tynemouth, North East England
He was a fixture in the Warwick Arms (aka Ramsey's brothel - don't ask) in Maida Vale, where he could get belligerent when told he'd had enough to drink.
Bernard Hill will be forever remembered as 'Yosser Hughes' from the tv adaptation of Boys from the blackstuff by Alan Bleasdale. Probably the best critique of Thatcher era Britain during the 80's.
She may have been offered an Honour, but declined it for any number of reasons [please note: this is just speculation]. Some people stick to their guns and refuse to endorse a system of which they may disapprove. After all, you don't have to accept. Loud and leery militant activist types will reject their Honour VERY VERY PUBLICLY, making as much political fuss as possible in the media about how great they are for not supporting "the much-hated, evil British establishment" (🙄). Other people - the modest, determinedly principled ones - will decline an Honour quietly and privately and just get on with their lives. Being offered one is all the recognition they need; rejecting it loudly is beneath their dignity. Not many people have that kind of class these days.
You’ve missed Michael Jayston’s most famous role. I would have said that it was Peter Guillam, George Smiley’s most loyal ally in the Secret Service, in the BBC’s 1979 version of Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy (though Michael Byrne took over the role for the 1982 follow up, Smiley’s People; the middle book of the trilogy, The Honourable Schoolboy being skipped over because of costs).
RIP to each of you, thoughts with their loved one. so many memories of mighty talents esp Gudrun Ure, Bernard Hill, Ewan McIntosh, Ian Gelder, Chance Perdomo, Brian McCardie 😞
Damn. I didn't realise that the guy who played Mr Robson on Grange Hill had died. He was definitely of the era when I watched the show, along with Mrs McClusky and Mr Bronson.
I really enjoyed his performance and the series Hazel which was given a rerun a few years ago, I look forward to watching it again someday. A time and type of people I remember.
Got rid of my television receiver in 2015, couldn't justify paying a TV licence. Sad that Michael Jayston has passed away, only just rewatched the series Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy, and regularly rewatch two classic movies, Cromwell (1970), Nicholas & Alexandra (1971). Know the stories well, but just love watching so many high quality actors with great scripts, camerawork, and soundtracks. Presently viewing the original Dad's Army series, and now we have lost Ian Lavender.
@@ludovica8221 Yes, indeed, and any BBC/ITV/C4 live broadcasting that can be found elsewhere. The TV Licensing team were very helpful in explaining any restrictions when they acknowledged my 'exemption'. Fortunately, I have never used, or even considered visiting BBC Iplayer, or similar. But I do have a very, very extensive DVD collection, practically all of which covers the golden era of British TV and Hollywood movie production, ie pre-2000. And while my news might not be quite 'live', there are much better and interesting sources for that elsewhere too. I do find it strange, and sad, how many willingly admit to spending their relaxation time scrolling with their remote controls for something contemporary worth watching on their television. I watch the best of the old, and seek out stimulating researches, opinions and debates elsewhere on the internet. My many younger friends have adopted a similar stance, although computer gaming is also very prevalent. I guess most Boomers are unable to make the break.
@@ludovica8221 Have never watched IPlayer, but I do have a massive collection of DVDs. Little produced after 2000 is worth watching, friends would tell me if it was otherwise. And I prefer to get my current affairs from more independent sources, even if it isn't quite live.
Ahh, i didn't realise Warwick Davis' wife had died, i was sat outside a hotel in Blackpool at a Babylon 5 convention in the late 90s talking to her, lovely lady 😍
I always liked Michael Culver in 'The Secret Army' and I remember him in an episode of 'A Fine Romance' and in Agatha Christie's 'The Moving Finger' with Joan Hickson. Michael Jayston was excellent in 'Nicholas and Alexandra' - really looked like Czar Nicholas and excellent in the 'Thriller' series, especially the episode 'A Coffin for the Bride.' All so sadly missed...💕💕
All these souls one after another making room on earth for all the new borns, so it is and always will be I lost my ded this year it feels like the end of an era 🙏
I remember almost all of these actors from back in the day. Colin Bennett brings back some fond memories, as does Georgina Hale, who I remember from the film Butley and a guest role in Rising Damp, Brian McCardie, who I met several times. I wonder if Pamela Salem was related to the actress Adele Salem who was briefly active during the 90s.

They didn't say he was Dr Who. He played the male schoolteacher who ended up with Dr Who and his granddaughter by accident, along with a female teacher as well. I'm old so I watched every series of the show from the beginning until the last couple of years, when I finally tuned out.
Dual nationality, British citzenship obtained in 2004. I'd say that still made him American. He was born there, raised there and lived there most of his life.
Yes indeed. I liked Quiller; it was dark and dour and not at all predictable. A refreshing change from the more formulaic spy dramas where the protagonist was often almost endowed with superpowers. I thought Michael brought a nice bit of 'edge' to the role and, rather like 'The Sweeney', you never knew if the good guys were going to win or not, or even if they were all that good. And the funky-futuristic theme tune was brilliant!
