I've just read that Dudley Sutton has passed away today. Another sad loss. Avengers fans will remember him from You'll catch your death. His most memorable role was Tinker in Lovejoy. RIP.

Well-known actor in Russia. Many memorable films: The Devils, The Pink Panther Strikes Again, Valentino, The Island, etc... Crying or Very sad

A man with good British manners and comedic talent. RIP.

Very sad news. I saw Dudley very recently on Talking Pictures TV discussing the courtroom drama The Boys (1962) in which he played a teddy-boy type character on trial for murder.
Dudley said he enjoyed working with Robert Morley who was very generous with his time and disliked Richard Todd for his arrogance.
Brilliant in Lovejoy as Tinker Bill, and in Porridge - demanding a helicopter for his escape.
RIP Dudley Sutton
