The original Alfred on B:TAS. R.I.P.

Quite a life.

 

[Milk Tray Guy]

Caught Clive Revill in an episode of Jason King just the other day and wondered what he was doing these days. He was great as the lead in The Legend of Hell House. Made a good murderer in an episode of Columbo too. A very long and very distinguished career. RIP

 

[Lily Adler]

He's with his Master Wayne in heaven now.

Wow, I showed up here late for the news on several people....RIP to Clive Revill, I've watched and listened to him for decades....RIP to Wings Hauser, the star of many a "B" movie classic.....and RIP to George Foreman, arguably more famous for his grill than his boxing.
