No 6. Clifford Calvert

It's when he's trying to convince Columbo to use a cutter on the end of his cigars.

Not the best episode ever but I've always had a soft spot for this one for some reason.

That was Sam Diamond.

Re: Columbo Quiz

You are right, "I stand corrected." Quote from "Double Exposure," when Columbo could not remember that it was Dr. Kepple, not Mr. Kepple.

I hope I was correct on that quote.

Thank you for the correction.
