Just been informed that legendary actor Ernest Borgnine has passed away aged 95.
Will fondly remember him as Santini from Airwolf, but also recognize him for so much more.

One of the greats...... I first saw him as Harry Booth in The Black Hole, but remember him best as Dom in Airwolf. Top turn as himself in one of my favourite Simpsons Boyscoutz in the Hood.

A shame.
I had hoped he might make it to his centenary.

I've lost track of the number of things I have seen him in over the years. He will be very much missed.

He was still acting at 95. That is impressive.

I've just watched Boyscoutz in the Hood for the first time in ages. I can't remember the last time that I laughed so much.
I'd not realised the ignificance of the banjo music before as they're canoeing. Is that a nod towards the Airwolf incidentals right at the end before the titles?
