JUST ONE MORE THING - THE LAST ONE


A fumbling, mumbling, forgetful, unassuming sleuth in a shabby trench-coat, who invariably always seemed to have had 'just one more thing' on his mind in his persistent quest in solving crimes, has sadly passed away. He has held us spell-bound and in awe with his numerous weekly episodes, glued to the television set through the 1970's.

Peter Falk was one of those fine actors who we rushed home from work to eagerly watch him in his role as Columbo in the television series of the same name. I feel sad that a famous icon of a very entertaining television detective series is no more.

I can still picture the man - trench-coat clad, cigar chomping, driving a battered 1959 Peugeot 403 Convertible. Brilliant actor. We'll miss him.

Very well said Tony we had fun watching many episodes of Colombo unravelling the mysteries.
