Americans will probably remember him best as the star of "The Equalizer."

Americans will probably remember him best as the star of "The Equalizer."

Your probably right.

Here in the UK it will more than likely be for his original TV series 'Callan'

A great British actor.

RIP

A fine actor.

I never read any scandals about him so he must have been a good guy.

But a singer? I would not have thought of him as a singer. :yeah:

RIP

I'll always remember him for "Breaker Morant"

"Shoot straight, ya B@st@rd's, and don't make a mess of it!"

RIP:cry:

Wasn't the quote, "Shoot straight, ya b@st@rds.... don't muck it up!!!!!" ? Sounds much more British. :D

Three of the letters in 'muck' are correct, Torplexed. :DL

[Sailor Steve]

Yup, I liked him too.

Most sad that there was not much coverage in the press.

Angelina Jolie using q-tips or Lindsey Lohan farting makes headlines for days, but an actor like Mr. Woodward, barely a whisper. :nope:
