RIP Leslie Nielsen

[GB72]

Really sad to hear that he had passed away. OK he probably over did the spoof movie thing in recent years but when he was on form and had a decent script (Airplane, Naked Gun) there was nobody who could deliver a line totally straight faced like he could.

He is responsible for some of the all time great, laugh out loud, moments and will be missed.

Loved his work. Police Squad was my favourite. Shirley he will be missed.

As I always say...

"Yes, well. When I see five weirdos dressed in togas stabbing a guy in the middle of the park in plain view of a hundred people, I shoot the bastards, that's my policy. "

I thought his golf stuff was pretty good too.
Always makes me chuckle when I watch them.

I was a pretty big fan of his comedy work. Didn't know much of the more serious stuff but then again I'm not 60 yet.
