16.11.2009 : Jean Hammond wrote I would like to pay tribute to Edward Woodward as one of the most versatile and professional actors of our time.
I also like the fact that he was not above sending himself up with appearances on shows like the Morecambe and Wise Show.
I always remember the gags they used to do with about his name....with Eric asking Ernie who would ever appear in the plays 'what he wrote' and Ernie saying: "Edward Woodward would".

Good night and God bless.
17.11.2009 : Heather Turnbull wrote A fine actor and a gentleman. You will be sorely missed. Condolences and blessings to you family who are quite rightly so proud of you.
17.11.2009 : thisis plymouth.co.uk wrote Mr Woodward moved to Calstock in the 1980s and lived in the old rectory with his wife and daughter Emily.

While living in Calstock, he was a supporter of local causes, including local live music, an arts centre in Looe, heart-disease charities, the fight for local post offices and Cornish Liberal Democrats.

Even after selling up they returned to a holiday cottage in Padstow where they had been living before Mr Woodward's death.
17.11.2009 : Lasting Tribute wrote In a bygones feature about the history of Nottingham Playhouse, published in the Nottingham Evening Post in 2008, memories were recalled of a 1965 production of Noel Coward's play Private Lives starring Edward Woodward and Judi Dench.

The play centres on the intense and often comedic love-hate relationship between a couple and it was reported that the two stars were often playing pranks on each other.

During one performance Mr Woodward had to push Dame Judi against a drinks trolley. The trolley was supposed to topple over with a crash, but on this occasion it stayed upright, with the actress stuck in it. Instead of helping her Mr Woodward stayed in character and turned and walked away, leaving her to struggle free on her own.

18.11.2009 : stephen rimmington wrote Fantastic actor.Extremely good in Callan but will always be remembered by many as the police officer in the original Wickerman.A truly creepy film where the hunter becomes the hunted. I think you all ought to know I am here on official business.

24.01.2010 : Patricia Gregory wrote Edward was the first British actor who ever showed me there was another way to portray a spy. He did it so effortlessly, it never ceases to amaze me that people don't recognise the value of this wonderful man - both as an actor and as a person. He is and always,by me, will be missed. Go quietly dear friend - and give 'em wot for! Patricia
