Edward Duke

From The Independent, obituary:
"Edward Duke, actor: born 17 June 1953; died London 8 January 1994.
EDWARD DUKE was something of a rarity among English stage actors under 40. He could enter a drawing-room. He could dress. He could light a cigarette. He could ask the butler for a whisky and soda; and he could sink into a sofa with a copy of the Times (before it was reduced to running news on the front page) and look at home."
