Leon Lissek RIP (1939–2022)

[kusumkangguru]

The Australian-born actor Leon Lissek has died at the age of 83.

His television roles include appearances in The Sullivans and EastEnders, as well as a cinema appearance in Time Bandits. But those on this forum will best recognise him as one of Krivas's gang in The Professionals episode 'Where The Jungle Ends', and as the caretaker of the villa in Malta visited by Regan and Carter in Sweeney2.

Once I Googled him I knew him instantly, one of those faces from all our TV yesterdays. RIP Leon.

Yes, not a name that instantly springs to mind, but very much a recognisable face. Had no idea he was Australian born.

Sorry to learn of his death. RIP.
