Sad news, terrific actor.

So many good things, I hope he is not just remembered for Harry Potter.

R.I.P Richard.

I agree. 40 episodes of Pie in the Sky, brilliant performance in the History Boys and credits going back to When The Boat Comes In and the press just concentrate on HarryPotter

I enjoyed him in everything I saw...all that have been mentioned, plus the unforgettable Uncle Monty, in Withnail And I.

Pie in the Sky was excellent, I still enjoy the repeats on ITV3.
I also remember him in Naked Gun 2½ as Dr. Meinheimer, very funny with Leslie Nielsen.
