Brilliantly gifted actor who very cleverly satirised the bigoted and racist attitudes of many British people in the 1970's. The clip from TDUDP that Boycie has posted being an example of Warren Mitchell's talent. RIP

Very sad news indeed. A great character actor that did justice to his part in the Sweeney. Best remembererd as "Alf" or course but not to be forgotten is that he had a very comprehensive career from the early 50's right up until 2006.
RIP Warren.

Very sad news, my other half told me just as I walked in the door this afternoon - another great character actor who will be sadly missed. As well as his more well known roles, he played many smaller (but important) parts in some of the ITC series of the '60s such as 'The Saint' etc.
RIP Warren Mitchell.

RIP Warren, very busy actor and a lot more besides his famous part of Alf Garnett, (he of course didn't really stand in real life for what Alf stood for) - a good innings.
