On January 17, derek Fords, a veteran actor who played secretary Bernard Woolley in the well-known classic British drama "Yes, Minister" and "Yes, Prime Minister", died in the United Kingdom at the age of 82.
It is reported that he was suffering from severe pneumonia, life-threatening, and stopped breathing at the Royal Union Hospital in Bath, England, on Friday, local time.
Fords is the longest-lived of the old "Yes, Chancellor" trio, the two old partners who died a long time ago, and now Fordes is gone to see Victoria with Paul Eddington and Nigel Hawthorne.
For the death of Fords, many fans of the show expressed great sadness and nostalgia.
Born in Wandsworth, London in 1937, Fords attended Secondary Modern School in Berkhamsted, Hertfordshire.
When he was young, Fords was very good-looking, wearing a suit and leather shoes, and the British gentleman's style was very charming.
At that time, he had been practicing as an amateur career, and subsequently he entered the Royal Academy of Dramatic Arts for acting training. By chance, he took the place of Rodney Bewes on children's show host "Mr. Derek", playing with a little fox, which made him famous for the first time on British television.
Since then, he has also presented many works and starred in many films, such as "East of Sudan" and "Hotel Paradiso".
Playing Bernard Woolley in the British TV comedies Yes, Chancellor and Yes Prime Minister and Oscar Blaketon in itV's longevity police drama Heartbeat are Fords' most successful renditions and are therefore impressive.
Fordes, who has been so successful in his career, has experienced two failed marriages emotionally. Fordes was married to actor Adrienne Corri, as well as "Blue Peter" host and dancer Lesley Judd, but both ended in divorce.
Today, Fords is free from the torment of illness and goes to a relaxed paradise. Although Fords is gone, his excellent works will always accompany us, and we can re-brush his film works to show our deep remembrance.
