R.I.P Gramps....


Charles "Bud" Tingwell
03/01/1923 - 15/05/2009

I can't really do justice to the life of this man, so what i'm going to do is link to his own biography and his Wikipedia page, so y'all can read for yourself about this icon of Australian acting.

Among his massively varied career, Bud did everything from Shakespeare to Thunderbirds. His IMDB page lists 146 seperate television and film acting credits, as well as scores of production and writing credits.
By comparison, Christopher Walken (who has acted in at least 3 films or TV shows per year for the last 35 years) only racks up just over 100 credits.
He will be sorely missed. Much respect
