I've read how Terry-Thomas played a lot of Dishonest John, dastardly cad characters in the movies and, aside from Sir Ware-Armtiage in "Those Magnificent Men", what was his best (or rather, worst) role in this vein?

I liked him as Lord Henry in 'The Naked Truth.' He is the typical caddish toff in that one. But he grabs the viewer's sympathy in this film. Great movie.

Probably WHERE WERE YOU WHEN THE LIGHTS WENT OUT? [1968]. Terry-Thomas acted rings around everyone in that film.

I haven't seen 'Where Were You When The Lights Went Out' yet. I don't like the name of his character in that film. Ladislaus Walichek. Hardly British old boy. How dastardly.

Who can forget Terry-Thomas in IT'S A MAD, MAD, MAD, MAD WORLD?
