    90 years old is a pretty good age to reach, doesn't make it any easier however.
    Rest in peace, Sir Sean Connery.
    You'll be remembered as one of the biggest icons of the silver screen, you changed cinema history with your magnetic screen presence. You also changed my life by allowing the 11 year old watching GF for the first time to understand the importance of confidence, class and charisma. I'm sure we all carry some of you in our hearts. Thankyou!

    Surprisingly, as an American, anytime I caught clips of that when I was much younger, I always seemed to enjoy it. Loved the two of them together.

    Yes, Dench and Palmer has such wonderful chemistry together. You felt that they had history. Great actor. RIP Geoffrey Palmer.

    Oh dear, that is sad news on the passing of Geoffrey Palmer.
    A wonderful part in TND, playing off against his friend Judi Dench.
    I'll also fondly remember him from the Fawlty Towers episode, 'The Kipper And The Corpse.'

    RIP to wonderful and versatile actor.

    I think I have some sort of memory of hearing that it did have some popularity in the US. Not sure if it was BBC America or what.

    Sad to hear of the death of Geoffrey Palmer. 93 is a good innings though.

    Geoffrey Palmer had a role in the Doctor Who episode “Voyage of the Damned”, which caused a sensation back in 2007.
    Wonderful actor who, of course, was splendid in Tomorrow Never Dies.

    RIP!

    Brilliant actor. There's a reason he was so great alongside even Judi Dench. He will be missed.

    R. I. P. Geoffrey Palmer like many of you have mentioned I remembered his teaming up with Judi in As Time Goes By. Memorable actor in everything he was in.

    I'm very sad about Geoffrey Palmer; seeing his glum chops in anything always cheered me up. (Another Bond connection: he was in Hawks with Timothy Dalton, although they don't appear together.)

    R.I.P. Geoffrey Palmer.

    This thread deserves a long vacation, if fate would allow it.
