We need more Ernest Borgnine's in this world - as actors, and more importantly, as men.

As a massive Airwolf fan, Ernie as Dom Santini helped a huge amount to make it such a great series whilst his cinematic work stands the test of time. He just came across as such a good-natured and fun fellow that you just couldn't do anything but smile when he was on. What an actor, what a gentleman!

Even Ernie, whose face was his fortune, flogged a beauty cream on tv that apparently made him look younger; (perhaps it worked, he always looked the same).

Liked the way that - when they met socially - Kirk Douglas always called him the name of his character in 'The Vikings', Ragnar, (who was Kirk's dad, even though he was about the same age).

A beautiful, bountiful career - Posiedon & Marty obviously - but let's not forget a fantastic turn in a Sean Penn short film made as part of a movie ruminating about 9/11, and his nice cameo in Red - honour is due.

One of my first memories of him was in the film Emperor of the North. I would probably have been about 10 (give or take) when i first saw it and found his character terrifying. And then years later in Escape from New York.

Brilliant actor, good old age to get to as well.

 A truly great screen presence, likable in every way. So many memorable performances and achieved so much in his time, making him one of the most inspirational actors of all time. He was excellent in Emperor of the North alongside Lee Marvin and superb in The Wild Bunch. His list of great performances are too large to list fully and actors of this day and age need to look up to this man with the greatest respect! Rest in Peace.
