Rest Well Sir.

Used to often turn up in random episodes of 70s TV series. Had a semi-regular role as the village elder in Robin of Sherwood. Usually on the receiving end of what what ever dastardly scheme the Sherriff and Gisbourne had cooked up that week. |

I remember him from his Robin of Sherwood role as Edward of Wickham - his real-life son also played his son in a few episodes. He can also be spotted in 3 Roger Moore Bond films, 2 of which he played the same character of Smithers in Q's lab scenes.

I had no idea he played Bobba Fett but certainly remember him from Robin of Sherwood and George Roper's "Son".
I recall coming home from school one day to find him and a film crew shooting something outside my house - according to my mum he spent half the time chatting her up !
RIP Sir (you cheeky devil)
