I actually liked the series "Manimal":

LONDON (AP) - British actor Simon MacCorkindale, who starred in the BBC series "Casualty" and the U.S. soap opera "Falcon Crest," has died of cancer at age 58.
Publicist Max Clifford said MacCorkindale died Thursday of bowel cancer in a London clinic.

MacCorkindale appeared in 59 episodes of "Falcon Crest" from 1984 to 1986 as womanizing lawyer Greg Reardon, and took the lead in the short-lived U.S. drama series "Manimal." In Britain, he appeared in the long-running hospital drama "Casualty" as consultant Harry Harper from 2002 to 2007.

He played Capt. Georg von Trapp in "The Sound of Music" on stage in London in 2008-2009.

MacCorkindale's first marriage to Fiona Fullerton ended in divorce. He is survived by his second wife and fellow actor, Susan George. He had no children.

I think she knows, that's why she hasn't been here for a while, she's waiting at the undertaker's door with her tap shoes, top hat and cane......
