Oh no :sad: I loved him.

omg never knew he was ill either RIP :(

Cancer according to the BBC

I had no idea he was sick. RIP :bawling:

Distraught.

No. I am shattered. He was one of my favourite actors, and I too did not know he'd been ill.

What is it with the age group 69?

RIP Alan.

:( awful news, such a great actor

Terrible, terrible news. Amazing man, amazing voice and so many great characters :love: It doesn't bear thinking about how many great movies and roles he brought to screen... Snape, Die Hard, Love Actually, Robin Hood, Dogma, Hitchhiker's Guide... :(

Great actor. RIP

Horrible news, I adored him in Love Actually and especially Die Hard :(

RIP Sir

69 is not a good age to be a celeb right now it seems

RIP :(

Harry potter marathon coming on I think. There could have been noone better for that part

Damn :(

Loved him in all his roles, he always played every character to the best he could, RIP :(

</3 another legend taken away

As with David Bowie just days ago, I was so shocked by this when I heard. He was a brilliant actor and one of the best parts of the HP franchise imo.

RIP </3

Such sad sad news :(

:sad:

Great actor,so much talent lost this week,Cancer is such a bastard.

:( RIP

nooooooo :sad: I literally just finished reading the last HP book last night too. The 'Always' bit makes me tear up every time.

Awful news

RIP

Argh, another brilliant actor is gone. :(

Always remember his roles as Severus Snape and Hans Gruber.

R.I.P

...another one of those people that you just can't believe and somehow think they'll be there forever...incredible actor...:sad:...

Apparently he kept his illness private as well. RIP

Pretty sad about this actually, amazing actor. RIP
