“We lost these two great men this week. My cousin David Berglas and my mate, Tim Woodward. Tim is pictured here sitting with my youngest daughter Amy in a pub in Kentish Town, after driving her around London, as a favor for me, on the back of his motorcycle, a perch I occupied rather awkwardly occasionally over the years I lived in London, even the night before my marriage to Jill, at which he was my best man. His wedding present to me was a motorcycle helmet emblazoned with an American Flag. We acted together, played together, drank together. I loved him. His nickname for me was The Great Bagel.“Tim passed away this morning. I spent a wonderful afternoon and evening with David and Ruth shortly after my oldest daughter Leah, got married, during which this picture was taken. He regaled me with stories about the older generation of our family, revealing amazing artifacts from his past. That was the last time I saw him. I am completely gutted, as I know so many others are, by the loss of these two truly extraordinary men.”
Tim Woodward’s extensive television credits include appearances in The Irish RM, Tales of the Unexpected, Absolutely Fabulous, Prime Suspect, Midsomer Murders, and Agatha Christie’s Poirot, among others. His dedication to the craft and memorable roles earned him a special place in the hearts of viewers.
