Let's make this birthday one to remember.

79 years old (Born on June 26, 1946)

Happy Birthday, Clive Francis! May your special day be as dramatic as your captivating performances on the BBC hit series 'Poldark.' You've generously given every scene more twists than Cornwall's coastline and delivered lines sharper than a villain’s wit.

Here's hoping that this year brings you even more unforgettable roles—ones that require fewer waistcoats perhaps? Your timeless charm makes fans swoon quicker than a Poldark cliffhanger. Cheers to many more adventures both onscreen and off; may your celebrations rival any drama in Cornwall (without the pesky smugglers, of course)!

Wishing you laughter-filled moments today—you've certainly earned every standing ovation!
