God bless you Mr Woodward.

RIP.
I liked Equalizer. Of course, for some reason, I thought this guy died years ago.

Also, The Equalizer would never be made in such PC times as now. I loved that show.

I loved that show. Wasn’t he also Sandra Bullock’s coach in Miss Congeniality?

Oh, no. It’s one of the gems of TV - it was wildly politically incorrect and featured one hardass SOB.
Basically, the character was a retired James Bond with less libido and more evil bastard dirty tricks plus a heck of a lot more realism than ever seen in any Bond film.

That actor would be Michael Caine. Woodward and Caine looked similar.

Prayers for your family and many thanks for the entertainment.
As a PPK aficionado myself, it was good to see one in Equalizer.
