I'd always wished we've learned more about him, especially after CoTW revealed he'd been in a Death Camp in Germany.

Indeed. He seemed like the kind of guy who would have a million stories to tell, if someone would just sit down with him and listen.

I can just hear him saying that in that elegently accented voice.

Before he broke out into song :)

Of course it was love-I can't have been the only one to notice that, whenever they were in the morgue, Fraser would stand in such a way as to shield Ray's view of the body, because he knew dead bodies upset him.

Oh definitely. It's the little things like that that reveal the depth of affections.

Thank you, MR.
