Milton!

I hope you enjoyed the break, but, sorry, I'm back now - I'm refreshed, rested and raring to go, so let's celebrate the return of normal weblog service with a brand new feature: 'Milton!'.

Milton Reid was an extraordinary looking Anglo-Indian wrestler / actor who made numerous appearances in films and TV from the fifties until his somewhat mysterious death in the nineteen eighties*. Often mute, always lurking, Milton may not have been a star in the normal sense, but he remains an unforgettable presence.

Here is as the ill-fated Cheng in 'Dr. Phibes Rises Again'.

* Milton supposedly died of a heart attack in India in 1982, but his son was apparently still receiving letters from him up until 1986.
