Leslie Phillips RIP

No one lives forever -- except, perhaps, Shirley MacLaine. This is where we ring down the final curtain for Filmdom's finest.

Leslie Phillips RIP

Postby Richard M Roberts » Tue Nov 08, 2022 1:40 pm

We lost Leslie Phillips yesterday, fine British character actor and comedian, who managed to work in both the CARRY ON and the DOCTOR films, and could be a fine dramatic actor as well, he made it to 98 and had a career that spanned the 1930's to 2012, playing the Sorcerer's Hat in the first two Harry Potter movies.

His leering use of the word "Hello" became a trademark, you could hear him greet you with it anytime you boarded a Virgin Airways flight for years, he had recorded it for them as their passenger greeting.

Rest in peace Leslie.
