Telly Savalas

Aristotelis "Telly" Savalas (Greek: Αριστοτέλης "Τέλλυ" Σαβάλας; January 21, 1922 – January 22, 1994) was an American singer and character actor whose career spanned four decades of television. Loved by many, including Jorge and Paul, for being a chocolate voiced, slapheaded sex machine.

In 1969, Savalas played Ernst Stavro Blofeld, the head of SPECTRE, in On Her Majesty's Secret Service, which is possibly the greatest Bond film of them all, if it weren't for Goldfinger.

Savalas lends his name to the occasional feature, Telly Me What You've Been Watching This Week.
