Andrew Sachs, Manuel from Fawlty Towers, passed away on November 23rd. It’s just being reported today by the BBC.
Go out this weekend and hit a waiter in his memory.
Especially if he’s from Barcelona. 
RIP, Andrew!
Very sad. He was part of the absolutely superb cast of Fawlty Towers whose lines still keep bouncing around in my head to this day, probably because I’ve seen the episodes so often and can’t stop watching!
I hate having to link to the stupid Daily Mail but they do have some recent pictures of him, perhaps interesting for those who’ve never seen him outside of that famous sitcom:
ETA: Never would have guessed that he was 9 years older than Cleese!
Has anyone seen my hamster? I had it in a cage in my bedroom and now he’s not there. 
“You are a…chhhideous oh-rang-ootang!”
“I can speak Eenglish. I learn eet from a boook.”
“You no understand. He want to kiss me!”
Damn, now I’m depressed.
You have rats in Spain, don’t you? Or did Franco have them all shot? :dubious:
What a fantastic character, and actor. Fawlty Towers was simply a vehicle for John Cleese, all the rest of the characters were merely props for him. Manuel was a true foil matching Cleese in providing humor.
…¿que?
HE PUT BASIL IN THE RATATOUILLE?!? :eek: :eek: :eek:
No senor, not “On those trays.”
Uno, dos, tres!
He climb ladder to see girl! Girl make him crazy! :eek:
I tell Terry paella is Spanish, not cockney stinking eel pie!
“Eventually.”
Which one is man with beard?
He ‘spleeps’ in eternal peace.
You orally men?
Holy crap! After forty years, I finally get this joke! DUH! :smack:
…yes!

“I boss!”
“No, no. The REAL boss. The Generalissimo.”
“In Madrid!”*
