Re: Bert Kwouck

The man that embarrassed my wife. Because she was ashamed of me corpsing in the cinema while watching his fight scenes in the Pink Panther films with Peter Sellers.. Thanks for the laughs. RIP

I remember him best from 'Tenko' - he was brilliant as Major Yamauchi.

Re: Bert Kwouck

God Bless him !

You will find that Bert pops up in a dizzying number of films with all manner of bit parts. Old films and new films. Just loads and loads of films, comedies, adventure films, old war films, Bond films, kids films. I'm amazed he hasn't had more recognition. I've always noted him.

Re: Bert Kwouck

Some of his appearances include:

Silent Witness
The Bill
Banzai
Bullet To Beijing
Lovejoy
Carry On Films
Empire Of The Sun
Howard's Way
Tenko
Hart To Hart
Doctor Who
Shoestring
Minder
Robin's Nest
It Ain't Half Hot Mum
The Tomorrow People
The Water Margin

plus of course

Goldfinger
The Pink Panther movies
Last Of The Summer Wine

In short it's like Bert has been quietly entertaining us through the years at every opportunity, but humbly, not requiring any great stardom or fame, just popping up everywhere doing what he does best.
