You exuded distinction and high class, Mr. Marshall, which made great productions all the greater, particularly those of the fantastic, historic and adventurous.
There's "Rasputin the Mad Monk"; "The Viking Queen"; "Quatermass and the Pit/Five Million Years to Earth" (all three for Hammer); "The Witches"; "Mosquito Squadron"; "Man in the Wilderness"; "The Spy Who Loved Me"; "BMX Bandits"; "The Punisher '89"; "The Phantom Horseman"; "The Long Good Friday"; and "Selkie".
Your television work was as intriguing, with "The Buccaneer"; "Armchair Thriller"; "The Boy Merlin"; "The New Adventure of Robin Hood"; "The Frighteners"; "Thriller"; "The Saint"; "Return of the Saint"; "Warship"; and "The Professionals".
An actor of your caliber will be sorely missed; your opulent work will forever live on...
To fans of Gerry Anderson's "Thunderbirds" , you were the voice of Scott Tracy, a marionette of sophistication and exemplary diligence. (You also generously granted vocalizations to Anderson's "Joe 90", "The Secret Service" and "Captain Scarlet and the Mysterons".)
In the sphere of spy hi jinks, you had a more visible touch, starring in such Bond endeavors as "You Only Live Twice"; "Diamonds are Forever"; "Live and Let Die"; and "The Spy Who Loved Me". In related espionage, you appeared in "The Holcroft Covenant"; "The Billion Dollar Bubble"; "The Bourne Identity '89"; "Twilight's Last Gleaming"; "Return of the Saint"; "A Very British Coup"; "Silver Bears"; "S*P*Y*S"; "Spy Game"; and "Dr. Strangelove or How I Stopped Worrying and Love the Bomb".
In science-fiction, fantasy and action/adventure productions (whether for the large or small screen), you visited such submissions as "Superman: the Movie"; "Superman II"; "Superman III"; "Batman Begins"; "Warlords of Atlantis"; "The People That Time Forgot"; "Rollerball '75"; "Dark Shadows '12"; "Crusoe"; "Dreamchild"; "A Kid in King Arthur's Court"; "Doctor Who"; "The Protectors"; "The Persuaders!"; "Space Truckers"; "Space Police"; "Space: 1999"; "UFO"; "Star Wars: A New Hope"; "Morons from Outer Space"; "The Arabian Adventure"; "Day of the Comet"; "Alien Autopsy"; "The Hunger"; "Hammer House of Mystery"; "Roald Dahl's Tales of the Unexpected"; "Baffled!"; "Flaming Frontier". "Dogs of War"; "A Dangerous Age"; and "A Kiss Before Dying".
Alas, actors of your varied caliber don't always get the recognition they deserve, but you, Mr. Rimmer, were one to remember and appreciate, no matter what the content or context.
Thanks for the long line of impressive work and all the imaginative memories...
