Peter Sellers
Like many actors in his league Peter Sellers was born into the entertainment industry on the 8th September 1925. His name was not really Peter; his parents called him that Peter in memory of his stillborn older brother. Peter was christened Richard Henry Sellers and made his first appearance in front of an audience when he was just two days old. He was carried onto the stage at King’s Theatre by his parents.
Peter Sellers will perhaps be best remembered for his roles in the Pink Panther series. So popular were the series that few people actually know that the last pink panther film “Trail of the Pink Panther” was released after Peter Sellers Died. In fact it was a film made from discarded snippets of the rest of the Pink Panther series. People will fondly remember Inspector Clouseau.
However it is not just film enthusiasts and fans that are remembering peter, recently he appeared in the commercials of the most awaited Apple iPhone. Peter made an appearance in the commercials along with other Hollywood stars such as Marlon Brando from the Godfather and Marilyn Monroe. The popular 30 second commercial was reportedly viewed by over 40 million viewers world wide. It is also believed that the iPhone commercial was screened several times at the 79th Academy awards ceremony last year and included the late actors speaking into phones saying the word “hello” in their characteristic way.
Peter Sellers was a comedian beyond compare while he made the world laugh by his antics on screen and in real life Peter had the last laugh on his death bed. Peter suffered a heart attack on the 24th July 1980 and knew his time had come, he called his son Michael to play the song “In the mood” at his funeral. Sellers hated the tune and said it was wonderfully inappropriate and so – appropriate for a solemn occasion.
