Oh how sad .

He was brilliant in Minder ( Still my favourite comedy drama )

R I P George

[anotheoldgit]

Yes I endorse all what has been said about this superb actor, who have we got to replace the great talents of those who are sadly leaving us for that great stage up in the sky?

R I P George.

[Ric.ror]

Was he adopted by Alistair Simms?

[hc4361]

No, Ric, although George Cole did live with Sim and his wife for a few years from the age of 15

[Arksided]

RIP George, first I've heard. I too loved Minder grew up into my teens watching it.

[marval]

I was sad to hear this, RIP George.

He did live with Alistair Sim for a while.

A little dodgy? maybe, but underneath, he's alright! R.I.P.

[mikey4444]

Oh dear...another great leaves us !

[jourdain2]

Oh dear! I feel another little bit bereft. OH sold cars at one point in his life and there is a photo of him in a 'spiv'/George Cole type suit.. The end is nigh! So we'll just have to party! R.I.P. George - will never forget St. Trinians.

I've never forgotten one of his great lines in an episode of Minder:

"Don't swear in the House of God you ignorant ***!!"
