Hit by a pickup truck?
I once tried using "chicken" as a password, but was told it must contain a capital so I tried "chickenkiev"
On another occasion, I tried "beefstew", but was told it wasn't stroganoff.

Ignoring the unfunny joke, he was a lovely actor. Well judged, rounded performances whenever I saw him on screen.

Did you expect anything other?

I sure didn't!

Was very good as Lorne Byrne in Holby (where there are lots of road accidents);  he also managed to get off with his son's wife in that, (again not uncommon in soaps). I think I last saw him in Downtown but he was always popping up in things on TV.
