Rob, please add A Shot in the Dark & Revenge of the Pink Panther to his credits.
Like you said, Douglas didn’t seem much over 5’11” with Sellers- 5’11.75” would be highest case.

Rob, yet another for Bond actors tag!

Click Here, Wilmer barely edges Bishop, so I have to go 5’11.5” for Douglas.

Seeing him in his 30's, he looked closer to 6ft than say 5ft 11. By his 50's he had lost a little height.
