Tell you what though he aged rather badly - hardly recognisable from his youth . Drink and drugs abuse will do that.

There was a time when he seemed to be on every television program
65 is in this day and age is still young

Same here. Could’ve sworn he’d died about 5 years ago.

Believe it or not I was Googling this guy last night as I was thinking he must be one of the few Prisoner actors still alive.
Derren Nesbitt is another one.

Colleen had it on her face and her shoulder. She’s ok for now. Anne has had it twice and Bernie and now Linda have both died. Their extended family has also suffered from it, Linda’s husband died of it. Horrible disease, my brother died of it aged 45 and my sister has had it. Recently my friend died in September from it and another friend has stage 4 aged 52.
