Lightbulb Who is the oldest well known actor still alive?

Had this debate at work last night.

Maureen Ohara and Mickey Rooney are 84.

I think I have the answer: Sir John Mills (Ice Cold in Alex, etc.) is 96

Surely there can't be any older?

Scottie from Star Trek is 108!!

He looks slightly younger, but the space travel has slowed the ageing down somewhat, amazing!

Actually Johannes Heesters is the oldest living actor. I've never heard of him.

James Doohan is, of course, only 84 although he did become a parent at the age of 80

Scottie no longer says she cannie take it captain, as he struggles to remember who he is himself

he has now officially retired from the public, due to Alzheimers

not a trekkie but read it in the paper the other day
