The trouble with Scotland is that it's full of Scots. Patrick McGoohan died aged 80 on 13th January 2009 in Santa Monica, Callyfornia, following a fight to the death with Ricardo Montalbán, 88 who died of his wounds 14th January 2009.
McGoohan was born in New York and raised in Ireland and England. To me he is most famous as #6 in The Prisoner series he was once considered for James Bond, legend has it he turned it doon because it wasn't a good role model.
He once said about sterotyping:
Mel will always be Mad Max, and me, I will always be a Number.
Ricardo Montalbán born in Mexico became an American and did the roles Americans didn't want to do for half the price.
I think he is best known as that smug twat on Fantasy Island and as Chuka Khan Noonien Singh in 'Star Trek II: The Wrath of lunch'.
He was in his 60's when he did that flick and the chest muscles were his own his hair belonged to Limahl from Kajagoogoo.
