    What a load of f***ing sh*te.  I thought 2019 and 2020 were bad.  RIP.

    Lot's of people mentioning Cracker and rightly so. I liked his bus driver in Still Game. The one I thought was his best role though was Max in Comic Strip, "I, I, I'm a bit of a mess right now". RIP.

    He was great in Cracker. He was also in a drama a year or two back about historical sexual abuse (National Treasure I think it was called). Didnt see it but must now try to find it on brit box or Netflix. 

    RIP big man.

    Along with Julie Walters, his performance in National Treasure (based on Yewtree) was outstanding.

    RIP

    edit: posted before I saw your post @golfaddick - it’s a 4-parter, available on All4 (shocked to see it was from 2016 though)

    Oh gawd, that’s very sad. I’ll always remember him in Tutti Frutti, the comic strip and the Bond films and best of all Cracker - a brilliant role. I’ve never really watched Harry Potter but it sounds like he did great work in that as well.

    RIP  big man.
