Kommandant RIP

The wonderful Bernard Hepton died on Friday. Brilliant, brilliant actor with a lovely and very distinctive voice; versatile beyond belief. Sadly, I saw him only once on stage.  


He was a Yorkshireman, and he was 92 — it would be absurd to be heartbroken, but I nearly am.


Here he is as Kommandant of Colditz Castle, in the series in which David McCallum played prisoner of war, Simon Carter.
