Great actor and a war hero he was in the group that took Pegasus bridge on D-Day (he also starred in the Longest Day where he played Major John Howard who was also at Pegasus bridge).
Clip of him in 2004 on the bbc website reporting his death

BBC News - Dam Busters star Richard Todd dies aged 90

Yes there is a dog's grave in front of the old 617 Sqn hangar at Scampton.

Richard Todd was certainly quite a man, what with his heroic wartime record as well as his fine acting.
