He was superb in HFTP, Ali always brings a grin to my face.

And he was King Phillip of Spain in Sir Francis Drake, no less! What an amazing career. Actor, producer, director, and talk show host...

91 years old - a good age.

His scene with the dance and the cricket is the best bit in Honey for the Prince.
