- He died of heart attack in his dressing room during a stage performance of Joe Orton's "Loot".
- He was the first choice for the role of Wadsworth in Alle Mörder sind schon da (1985) but he passed away a few months prior to the filming. The role went to Tim Curry.
- He was well-known for his strict professionalism and competitive streak. He was a perfectionist when it came to acting, and was known to be a difficult actor to work with despite his affectionate and flamboyant personality.
- He was interviewed by police officers during the Valerie Storie and Michael J Gregston inquiry.
- Missed out on University as he couldn't afford the fees. Would have liked to have gone to read languages.
- You get a much greater sense of doing the job more successfully working in the theater ...Theatre is my favorite, I suppose, audiences are very important to me.
- Partly because of my lack of interest in history and partly because of an in-built conviction that too much research leads to cranky performances, I never dug too deeply into the private lives of any historical characters I've attempted - Voltaire, Hitler, Giordano Bruno or Richard III. If the author doesn't achieve his aim between pages 1 and 80 no amount of research by an actor will do it.
- When I worked over there (America) I came to a firm conclusion - we are separated by a mutual language.
- It's not that I can't tolerate fools, I can, providing that I don't have to put up with them for too long.
