Robbie Coltrane: Harry Potter actor dies aged 72 [bbc.co.uk]
It’s with great sadness I report the death today aged 72 of Scottish actor Robbie Coltrane…probably best known internationally for his portrayal of Hagrid in the Harry Potter films. Here in the U.K. we also remember him on TV in Tutti-Frutti and Cracker and in Blackadder as Samuel Johnson. RIP - 1950-2022.
Sad , a very versatile character.
Yes…sad news.
I enjoyed this man's acting skills immensely! Hagrid was so fun! But his character Fitz in Cracker was outstanding!
Sad to read he has passed.
Yes…he was so good in Cracker, I agree.
He was a marvelously talented man. A sad passing indeed.
I Loved him in Cracker!!!!!!!!
Yes…I did too!
I just found out i can watch the entire series on Acorn!
It gets more depressing when those younger than one die.
Hagrig was a wonderful character, kind hearted, rebellious and somewhat bonkers.
Yes…and Robbie was a nice man and a very good actor.
