Fawlty Towers star Andrew Sachs dies at 86

(1/1)

Simon:
Andrew Sachs, best known for his role in the beloved 1970s sitcom Fawlty Towers, has died at the age of 86, according to reports.

The actor, who starred as hapless Spanish waiter Manuel in the comedy about a gaffe-prone hotel, reportedly passed away in a care home last week.

His wife Melody said he had been diagnosed with vascular dementia four years ago, but his condition had rapidly deteriorated in the days before his death.

Very sad to hear that.  Of course those idiots Brand and Ross didn't do much for his health.   :(
