Patrick McGoohan, RIP
Man, THIS is a bummer. He recently suffered a short illness. Being 80, it hit him a lot harder than they had originally thought. Some of his roles:
The Scarecrow of Romney Marsh John Drake, "Secret Agent" Number Six "The Prisoner" The doctor who created the "Scanners" and Longshanks, in "Braveheart"

What a horrible day.....
McGoohan did a memorable episode of Columbo....the only one in which the solution was not known at the start of the show....watching him and Peter Falk spar was great (actually, he appeared in 2 episodes, I just learned while checking spellings....) RIP and thank you for everything.

Very sad to hear it. I regard The Prisoner as one of the best series ever made. PM had a most engaging acting style that kept me riveted.
