The British actor Ron Moody had died aged 91. Moody started his acting career on the stage, best known for his portrayal of Fagin in the original West End production of Oliver! After appearing in films such as Summer Holiday and the Miss Marple adventure Murder Most Foul, he reprised his role of Faygin on the big screen. Some will know he turned down the role of the third incarnation The Doctor in Doctor Who, the part instead going to Jon Pertwee. An often forgotten part was that of Merlin in The Spaceman and King Arthur aka Unidentified Flying Oddball. http://www.theguardian.com/stage/2015/jun/11/ron-moody-actor-fagin-oliver-musical-dies-aged-91 RIP Ron - yet another great British actor sadly no longer with us.
