His favourite actor? Charlie Chaplin. Why? “He was the best, a genius.”  The Simpsons’ executive producer Al Jean, wrote: ‘@TheSimpsons no one could do a better Wolfcastle interview than James Lipton RIP.’  Talkshow host Andy Cohen, added: ‘#JamesLipton was a warm, meticulous man with a great appreciation of the arts and wicked sense of humor. He was the face of Bravo who delivered us one-of-a-kind interviews with a breadth of superstars. He was always so kind to me…  ‘When he found out how much I love Diana Ross, he insisted on taking me to see her in concert. He really cared about what he did.  ‘If you got booked on his show, it meant you’d made it, and had the talent to back it up. What a good guy. James Lipton will be missed.’
