Default Geoffrey Palmer, TV and film actor, dies at 93




A Top Hard Working Actor
in his day


[Actor Geoffrey Palmer, known for his
roles in such sitcoms as Butterflies,
As Time Goes By and
The Fall and Rise of Reginald Perrin,
has died aged 93.
He died peacefully at home, his agent said.

Versatile and prolific, he was known and
loved for his hangdog expression,
lugubrious delivery and the often testy demeanour
he gave to his characters.
As Time Goes By saw him star with
Dame Judi Dench, a partnership they revived
in Bond film Tomorrow Never Dies.
He also acted in Mrs Brown, again with Dench,
and The Madness of King George.]
