The Passing of Peter Graves

Peter Graves is dead.


Renown for his role in 'Mission Impossible' TV series, he was a consummate actor and was a joy to watch when an episode starts to roll before the credits as he listens to a self-destructing tape-recorder.

We all loved Peter Graves. Yes, is was not impossible for him to leave us. He died yesterday at his home in Pacific Palisades.

Apart from the 'Mission Impossible' series, he starred also in  “Airplane!” and Billy Wilder’s “Stalag 17”

We say good-bye to another brilliant actor of the silver screen.
