Star of Cracker, Harry Potter and "Laugh, I Nearly Paid My License Fee" just passed.
A genuine gentle giant, car buff, and could boast a CV that varied from James Bond (his Russian gangster Valentin Zukovsky being one of the high points of Pierce Brosnan's tenure IMO) to disguising himself as a nun alongside Eric Idle.
Rest easy, big guy.

Agree with all the comments above. Well said, folks.
One role that I really liked was in a drama called 'National Treasure', in which he played a TV celebrity accused of rape. His on screen wife was played by Julie Walters, and both actors were wonderful.
