British actor Burt Kwouk has passed away at the age of 85.
Kwouk’s acting career spanned more than half a century mostly on British TV shows such as Danger Man, The Saint and later Last of The Summer Wine. But Kwouk is best known to American audiences as Cato who appeared in seven Pink Panther films over three decades most of them alongside Peter Sellers. No Pink Panther film was complete without Cato sneaking attacking Clousseau with invariably hilarious results.
