Commo 1,292 Posted November 5, 2013 Report Share Posted November 5, 2013 Graham Stark was one of the prolific comedy character actors of the time of those of us who have achieved a certain maturity. I always enjoyed his radio, TV and film appearances, and remember the 50's and 60's as the golden age of British comedy films, a poignant Black and White era.

barclaycon 569 Posted November 6, 2013 Report Share Posted November 6, 2013 Graham Stark was a big mate of Peter Sellers and was always popping up in Sellers' films like The Pink Panther. (Same with David Lodge - also one of Sellers' close friends). 91 is a pretty good innings..... RIP Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Cliff Ton 10,435 Posted November 6, 2013 Report Share Posted November 6, 2013 Quite a few years ago I was in London and I walked past him in the street somewhere around the West End, he being instantly recognisable. One thing I noticed about him which may not be apparent in films - he was not exactly tall. He was definitely no more than about 5ft 2in or 5ft 3in. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I'm half way through the biography, 'The Life and Death of Peter Sellers' by Roger Lewis. It's well worth a read, if you haven't already read it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
