minor addition - clarification
 

That was Winston Spencer-Churchill, grandson of the original and most famous PM Winston Churchill, who died in January of 1965.

Long list of notables.

I believe a misquote/recall:
Lloyd Bridges did that quote IIRC

Leslie "Airplane, Smoking Gun" etc did "It's a big building with a red cross on it, but that's not important now." and "Stop calling me Shirley."

I was going to say...

I'm pretty sure Winston Churchill died in 1965.

Leslie Nielsen was also in Forbidden Planet, showing right now on TMC..

Yes, a lot of loss this past year, many close to home too..

Funny life
 

During his time as a Member of Parliament, Churchill visited Beijing with a delegation of other MPs, including Clement Freud, a grandson of the pioneering psychoanalyst Sigmund Freud. Freud asked why Churchill was given the best room in the hotel and was told it was because Churchill was a grandson of Britain's most illustrious Prime Minister. Freud responded by saying it was the first time in his life that he had been "out-grandfathered"
