The coffee ad/Buffy/Ted Lasso actor has passed aged just 72. Seemed like a decent bloke who enjoyed life. RIP Tony

    Really sad. No age and so great in Buffy and lately Ted Lasso.

    Ah man thats sad, also pulled a great turn as speccy Will's dad in one of the invetweeners films. Also very solid comedy turn in Motherland 

    Rest in peace Anthony Head

    Sad news. I knew of him from the coffee ads with Sharon Maughan. My daughter knows of him from Buffy. Different times.

    RIP.

    Ah that's sad especially at that age. Hadn't realised until now that his older brother, by some eight years, is Murray Head, actor and singer of songs such as Superstar and One Night In Bangkok. 

    RIP

    saw him in Rocky Horror in 1990 and one line has stuck in my head for the last 36 years, probably because it was such a surprise to hear it coming from the Gold Blend guy wearing stockings and suspenders

    someone heckled him and he responded with 'will someone give that arsehole an enema'

    God bless to the Coffee man. RIP

    Much better than Gareth Hunt in that type of role

    RIP.  Liked everything he was in.  A series a few years back about middle aged men getting to grips with aging (Manchild) was hilarious.  72 young these days.

    I think I'm right in saying his Daughter played Carly in the Inbetweeners

    He was brilliant in Buffy (one of the best TV shows of all time?)

    Was excellent as the Prime Minister, literally playing the straight man to David Walliams ultra-camp aide.  RIP.

    Very sad. Rest in peace. Finding some odd comfort in the discovery of so many Buffy Addicks

    So sad.
    That gold blend advert was iconic and then he turned up in Buffy! My absolute guilty pleasure. And he was a real animal lover.
    RIP Anthony 😢
