 SPOILER: Contrary to popular rumour, Prices character actually only  killed six of the eight Guinness characters. The second "victim,"  the bank manager, dies of a stroke or heart attack; Price had grown  fond of him, and even says at one point he was glad he didnt have  to kill him. Another Guinness character, Admiral Horatio DAscoyne,  goes down with his ship during a gale, and is only seen saluting as  the water rises over his head.
