Sad to report the death of actor Henry Woolf at 91, possibly best known for playing gangster Frankie Barrow in the Steptoe & Son Ride Again film, he also appeared in The Rocky Horror Picture Show and Dr Who.
RIP Henry Woolf

Very sad. 91 is respectable though. Always Frankie Barrow to me but I also remember his voice over work on stuff like the kids TV show Words and Pictures.
R.I.P. Henry.

He also played the part of Jimmy Dancer in The Sweeney episode, I Want The Man. One of The Sweeney's great characters
RIP Henry Woolf

RIP Henry.
Loved his work on Rutland Weekend Television alongside Neil Innes/Eric Idle and fondly remember him on Words and Pictures and in Steptoe and son.
He'll always be Jimmy Dancer though!

RIP Henry Woolf. Yes remember his Sweeney and Steptoe parts well, I used to watch Words and pictures at primary school. Hadn't realised he worked on that too, till later years.

RIP Henry. I watched him in the Halloween edition of 'Words And Pictures' from 1975 a few days ago.  |
