RIP Alan, another say day at the start of 2016



Passed away aged 69. Very sad news. Tremendous actor.
Another big shock this week. Of course Harry Potter was mentioned first but the first thing that came to me was Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves. That was the first time I saw him and only later saw films such as Truly, Madly, Deeply, Close My Eyes and his brilliant role in Die Hard. I'd have liked to see him in the stage version of Les Liaisons dangereuses with Lindsay Duncan.



28 days...6 hours...42 minutes...12 seconds
No........this is going to be a bad year.

Much-loved star of stage, TV and films including Harry Potter and Die Hard – and owner of one of the most singular voices in acting *– has died in London

RIP

This news makes me sad.

He will be fondly remembered from films like Galaxy Quest, Sense and Sensibility and his deliciously over the top performance as the Sheriff in Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves.
