Shane Rimmer (born 28 May 1929) is a Canadian actor and voice actor, known for providing the voice of Scott Tracy in the British television series Thunderbirds (1965–66).
Rimmer has appeared mainly in supporting roles – especially in films and television series produced in the United Kingdom, having immigrated to England in the late 1950s, initially performing as a cabaret singer and then auditioning for Thunderbirds.
His appearances include roles in films such as Dr. Strangelove (1964), Rollerball (1975), The Spy Who Loved Me (1977), Gandhi (1982), Out of Africa (1985) and Crusoe (1989). More recently, he has appeared in Spy Game (2001) and Batman Begins (2005).
In the earlier years of his career, Rimmer appeared uncredited in, among other films, You Only Live Twice (1967), Diamonds Are Forever (1971), Star Wars (1977) and Superman II (1980). With the exception of cast members playing recurring characters, he has appeared in more James Bond films than any other actor. He also is believed to have provided the voice for the character Hamilton (played by Robert Dix) in Live and Let Die (1973) ("Whose, uh, funeral is it?" ("Yours"))
Star Wars is an American epic space opera franchise, centered on a film series created by George Lucas. It depicts the adventures of various characters "a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away".
The first film in the series, Star Wars (later subtitled Episode IV: A New Hope), was released on May 25, 1977 by 20th Century Fox and became a worldwide pop culture phenomenon. It was followed by the similarly successful sequels The Empire Strikes Back (1980) and Return of the Jedi (1983); these three films constitute the original Star Wars trilogy. A prequel trilogy was later released between 1999 and 2005, which received a more mixed reaction from critics and fans, compared to the original trilogy. All seven films were nominated for or won Academy Awards, and were commercial successes, with a combined box office revenue of $4.38 billion, making Star Wars the fourth highest-grossing film series. The series has spawned an extensive media franchise—the Star Wars expanded universe—including books, television series, computer and video games, and comic books, resulting in significant development of the series's fictional universe. Star Wars also holds a Guinness World Records title for the "Most successful film merchandising franchise." In 2012, the total value of the Star Wars franchise was estimated at USD $30.7 billion, including box-office receipts as well as profits from their video games and DVD sales.
A red carpet is traditionally used to mark the route taken by heads of state on ceremonial and formal occasions, and has in recent decades been extended to use by VIPs and celebrities at formal events.
The earliest known reference to walking a red carpet in literature is in the play Agamemnon by Aeschylus, written in 458 BC. When the title character returns from Troy, he is greeted by his vengeful wife Clytemnestra who offers him a red path to walk upon:
Agamemnon, knowing that only gods walk on such luxury, responds with trepidation:
Oriental carpets in Renaissance painting often show rugs and carpets, patterned but with red often the main background colour, laid on the steps to a throne, or on a dais where rulers or sacred figures are placed.
A red carpet was rolled out to a river to welcome the arrival of United States president James Monroe in 1821. In 1902, The New York Central Railroad used plush crimson carpets to direct people as they boarded their 20th Century Limited passenger train. This is believed to be the origin of the phrase "red-carpet treatment". Film premieres are often laid down with red carpets.
Rimmer is a surname. Notable people with the surname include:

The show made frequent use of puns and visual gags.[1] The series consisted of 22 six-minute episodes, covering two story arcs of equal length: "The Case Of The Human Cannonball" and "The Case Of The Maltese Parrot".[2] The programme was originally broadcast in the United Kingdom as a segment of the Sunday morning show Network 7 on Channel 4, and was later repeated on the same channel in a late night spot.

INTERVIEW: Shane Rimmer at EVERYTHING OR NOTHING The Untold Story of 007 at Odeon Leicester Square on October 01, 2012 in London, England Thanks for watching this video! Video Credit: Getty Images
[This was taken at Royal Air Force Museum in Cosford on Saturday 24th November 2012] During the Fanderson Convention at the muesum, Matt Zimmerman (Alan Tracy), Shane Rimmer (Scott Tracy) and David Graham (Brains, Parker, Gordon Tracy and Kyrano) re-enact the scene from the episode of Thunderbirds. (which I believe was from "Atlantic Inferno" because of the scene where the discussion about two men trapped under an sea bed, during a raging fire blown from an oil rig) So I hope you'll have a viewing pleasure to enjoy watching this short video on the day, as much as I enjoyed myself. ^^ Daniel Coffey
