The Welsh actor, famous for his role as Battery Sergeant Major "Shut Up!" Williams in the World War 2 comedy It Ain't Half Hot, Mum passed away this weekend.

Sample dialogue from the character:

[Told that an intruder in the camp is a fortune teller] "I will tell HIS fortune. If he is not out of my camp in ten seconds, he will find my foot up his jacksi."  :buggedout: :bouncegiggle: :bouncegiggle:

We shall meet in the place where there is no darkness.

Loved that show as a kid. Got the boxed set and it was one of the first shows I introduced Kristi too.
Your kisses turn princes into frogs and passion plays into monologues.

Is that the series Leslie Grantham later acted in?
What does not kill me makes me stranger.

No, he was in Eastenders. You know the one with the theme that goes dah nah nah nah nah nah.
Your kisses turn princes into frogs and passion plays into monologues.

I remember it in my nightmares, yes, but he also later went on to play a soldier in a military sitcom.

You know, I only today found out he died last June.
