Goodbye Mr Olivander/War Doctor
8 years ago
The actor John Hurt has died.
From Alien where in the chest burster he appears as the poor viction of the Alien, to Caligula, the elephant man John Merrick, Quention Crisp in the Naked Civil Servant, and he was even the voice of Hazel in Watership Down. This was actor who could play any part and was a master of the big screen, small screen and even the occasional theatre production. A true master of his art and apparently a pleasure to work with.
Most recently we saw him as Mr Olivander, the maker of wands, in Harry Potter and on British TV as the War Doctor, in the Day of the Doctor.
Farewell wise spirit, a man with the voice of silky gravel and the purveyor of great dreams.
