Legendary star of screen and stage has sadly passed away aged 95.

Very distinctive voice in a career that spanned over 70 years.

RIP.
Played many, many films and appeared in quite a few crap ones too (his words). Especially liked him in the film 'The hunt for Red October'. A London born playing a Russian diplomat. RIP

Brilliant scene at the end of the film when the US Secretary asks him Andrei, you've lost ANOTHER submarine?

IIRC, he's one of those rare people born on 29 February, so he actually had 23 birthdays :)

A fine actor, with such a distinctive voice
