# Cigarette?
Yes, I know.

I never felt he was at his best in the Naked Gun movies - notwithstanding the 'Nice beaver' line in the first film, but in Airplane, and Police Squad on TV, he reigned supreme.
And did a pretty good job as a straight actor in Forbidden Planet.

RIP Mr N... I just wanted to say, 'good luck'.

# I forgot my other favourite from Police Squad
When Frank & Nordberg go undercover as locksmiths, but every time Nordberg uses the key cutter, the blank shoots up to the ceiling, meaning a pile of keys tinkle to the ground every time the door to the shop opens. I'm grinning like a loon just remembering it.

# The bit where...
he tells Norberg he's got a bit of food on the side of his mouth (above camera shot) and then a big lump of banana falls on the desk.

Plus the whole Tony D'Wonderful routine.
