Peter Falk aka Columbo, and the Grandfather/narrator in The Princess Bride (and many other things, as I've just discovered, but didn't realise), died last night at the ripe old age of 83.

I'm sure that I'm not the only one who has fond memories of him. For one thing, his gravelly voice is just perfect for the Princess Bride - one of my favouritest films ever.

So, as I have posted elsewhere:

Tonight I'm raising a glass to Peter Falk
I toast you good sir, as a man who brought joy to the multitude, and who will be forever synonymous with that raincoat.
And, you were pretty darned good in the Princess Bride too!
Rest in Peace, good man
