Apparently, Mr. Sachs had been battling dementia for the past four years, a disease I'm very familiar with. 86 years is a good run, but he was a part of my pre-teen years watching the absolutely hilarious 'Fawlty Towers' on this side of the Atlantic back in the mid-70s. Good ol' "Manuel".

Godspeed, Mr. Sachs, and thank you very much.

I've never seen an actor get as much comedic mileage out of a single word!

"¿Que?"

Rest in peace, fine sir!

RIP Mr Sachs, you gave me and my family many many delightful nights watching your antics as Manuel. Thank you.

Could never have been a "Faulty Towers" without him!
