I once saw Griffiths on stage in ‘Art’ with Paul Freeman and George Segal. All three were excellent as you’d expect. Yes, Griffiths mostly gets boiled down to Monty and Dursley, but I loved him in Naked Gun 2.5 - just hilarious!

He was a brilliant performer, very much missed.

Wonderful in A Private Function too, and really everything he did. He elevated every role.

I saw how with Danny Devito on stage shortly before he died in 'The Sunshine Boys' He was marvelous. He was also brilliant as the detective chef in 'Pie in the Sky'
