Dammit, now I'll never have a shoe phone. Maxwell Smart dies.

Now listen carefully. Don Adams, who played Maxwell Smart in one of the best shows of my youth has died aged 82. The show actually aired from 1965 to 1970 in the US but I didn’t see it until well into the 70’s. A very very silly series which I will never forget.

I cannot walk through any building with more than two swing doors in sequence without that tune starting in my head duh duh duh duuuuuuh, duh duh duh duuuuh…

Shocking Update: My wife has no idea what I am talking about. I thought everyone of our generation got their first taste of Mel Brooks via Agent 99? And we lived in 2-channel hell for most of the 70’s!
