  • Will always remember him for just a small part in the film The Hunt for Red October where he plays the Russian Ambassador. His voice is so distinctive. 

    RIP.
  • Will always be remembered for…………

    ’Diplomatic immunity!’

    Then being shot by Danny Glover whilst saying, ‘it’s just been revoked’.

    RIP.

  • Great actor whose career never got bogged down in one type of role, an awesome bad guy in 90s action films but an incredible comic actor as well.
  • RIP

    He was very versatile.

    Interestingly he played Péron in the original London version of Evita with David Essex and Elaine Paige.
  • Ah what a shame. RIP Joss
  • I'm sure there's many on here that (with many RIP threads) are not familiar with the name, but recognise the face, so can I suggest in future that if you're starting a RIP thread, post a picture?
