Donald Pleasence?

Just tuned into ITV to watch Phil Collins and instead I've been greeted with Donald Pleasence! For a dead man he sure has a cracking singing voice!

Donald Pleasence had more talent.

Donald Pleasance is perhaps the most underrated actor of his generation. Folks often reduce him to Dr Loomis in the Halloween films, one of his dullest roles. I recommend Cul-de-Sac or Soldier Blue for film buffs, and of course his performances in The Great Escape and You only live twice (on which Mike Myers based Dr Evil) for a rainy Sunday afternoon. Speaking of which...

..and went to Ecclesfield school.

I directed Donald Pleasance once... From the Stag beer garden, back to his hotel. Nice chap.
