Such a great shame this fine actor has passed. May he rest in peace.
His career took him right to the end...in several more modern series and films.

A legend and a giant of film and theatre.
The stories of his younger acting days will go down in history, including having to be strapped to the saddle of a horse while filming Lawrence of Arabia because he was still so drunk from a long drinking session with Omar Sharif the night before.
One of the real greats, and one who many older people like myself always enjoyed seeing in a movie.

I didn't know he was married to Sian Phillips....who played Livia Drusilla opposite Brian Blessed in I, Claudius. What a witch of a role that was. Learn something...

My favorite Peter O'Toole film is "The Stunt Man". It's one of the most underrated of all time.
