I saw him on Pointless Celebs a while ago. He was in a wheelchair, and looked very sick.



I loved Blake's 7! I think it ought to be remade.

Sad news indeed :(

I saw him play Captain Vimes in Guards! Guards! at Wimbledon about 20 years ago.  He was excellent, perfect fit for the character.

Rutger Hauer!


"I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. [laughs] Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I watched c-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhäuser Gate. All those moments will be lost in time, like [coughs] tears in rain. Time to die."

Pity, that. Definitive role in that movie.

He also made a bloody good landsknecht.

I think Jeremy Kemp deserves a mention. More military roles than you could shake a stick at, but my favourite was in the Blue Max. RIP.

One of those actors who appeared in everything, but never really became a household name. A picture though ...


I remember him from Colditz, and as a cameo in my all time favourite film A Bridge Too Far.
