Well, he might be terrific.  Doesn't seem as old as I picture 
Peeves.  I always see Peeves as a cross between Uncle Albert in the 
movie Mary Poppins, and the old cartoon character 'The Funky 
Phantom'.  But, for an actor to play Peeves, I thought of Simon 
Callow, Gareth in "Four Weddings and a Funeral", (the one who died).  
Guess it doesn't matter now.
