    Ah! The Brian Blessed of the last D'Oyly Cartesians ("I think, therefore I ham") - I greatly enjoyed his Mikado, and 69 is no age.

      Yes, he had a big voice for a man of apparently fairly slight build. Sadly I never saw him perform live but have enjoyed hearing him on recordings. It must've been tough having to follow Donald Adams in those roles.
