He used to be everywhere but I haven't seen him for ages. I always liked him.
1993 Raymond Burr, age 76 - Canadian actor (Ironside, Rear Window, A Place in the Sun, The Defence Never Rests, Peter and Paul, Godzilla, His Kind of Woman, Meet Danny Wilson, A Cry in the Night) And, of course, he was Perry Mason!
I think I've heard of Perry Mason. Didn't he invent the Mason Jar or something?
1995 Jeremy Brett, age 61 – British stage and screen actor (My Fair Lady, War and Peace, Country Matters, The Picture of Dorian Gray, Rebecca, Madame X, The Good Soldier, On Approval, The Barretts of Wimpole Street, Moll Flanders) He established himself on television as the most mannered, yet totally convincing, Sherlock Holmes.
Best Sherlock Holmes ever.
