RIP Peter.

He'll always be remembered as 'Lawrence' of course but he has also given me countles hours of pleasure with 'Lion In Winter', 'Imperium Augustus', the superb ' Murphy's War','Lord Jim' and what I consider his masterpiece, 'Night Of The Generals'
Thank you Sir!

Slainte!

Quite the chap, he will be missed. Have fun on the other side!!
