And don't call me Shirley

Sadly........Leslie Nielsen has passed away at the age of 84 :'(

Many a great laugh from his deadpan delivery

My only problem with one of his performances was watching him in the Poseidon Adventure and trying to take him seriously as I was expecting something daft to happen at any second :)

RIP

What a shame :(

I echo the comment about the Poseidon adventure.. or any other 'straight' part he played :lol:

RIP Leslie.. 'we'd like to wish you good luck' ;)

And there's talk of remaking The Forbidden Planet, which he starred in 1956.

RIP
