  RIP Columbo star Peter Falk.
  
  I love watching the repeats on TV. I even have a signed photo of him and have been to his house in LA some years back.

  His later years were marred by his family arguing who should have power of attorney and be the executor for his estate after he was admitted to a care home suffering from alziemers.
  
  Great actor sadly missed.

  No! What a horrible end for someone with such charm. I had no idea. Bloody solicitors is my first thought after my bruising experience with probate, executorship and POA recently.
  
  No offence - some of my best friends are solicitors!! Some solicitors however are not my best friends.........

  He always has a cigar in his mouth in the films, similar to Kojac who always has a lolly-pop, which he then pulls out and pops in the mouth of his unfortunate innocent victim who he's questioning.
