I remember watching him in the Batman pictures and he was in the Martin Scorsese picture The Age of Innocence which Batman co-star Michelle Pfeiffer was also in.

Shame, he was the best actor in the latter awful Batman films.

It saddened me deeply, when i heard this news, yesterday. As a Batman and a horror fan it really broke my heart to hear this. May he RIP.

Here!! Here!!!
Alfred was awesome, and while the Bat may have changed in the Movies the real behind the scenes hero stayed the same! Michael Gough actually had quite a long and well played career. A supporting actor that made the lead actors shine!

All the good English butlers have died. ...

First Arthur's John Gielgud.. Now Batman's Michael Gough.

Rest In Peace.
