A fantastic actor, loved his work...

My favourite of all was when he was in a roll in "Truly,Madly,Deeply" such a beautiful
piece of acting.......

amazing - Obadiah Slope in Barchester Chronicles - brilliant
the villain in the first Die Hard - brilliant yet again - and the Sheriff in Robin Hood - a one off
