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.

Terrible, terrible news. Amazing man, amazing voice and so many great characters 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...

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

Argh, another brilliant actor is gone.

Always remember his roles as Severus Snape and Hans Gruber.
