If you mean "die", say so. I don't mind metaphorical euphemisms like fall off the perch or kick the bucket, but "pass" is such a spineless cop-out. This is the DeathList, not the PassList. We are better than that. 4 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Commtech Sio Bibble 2,002 Posted September 29 Simon Fisher Becker, who played the fat friar in Potter no.1, is probably worth a mention as he's roughly the size of a small cruise ship, is in his early 60s and uses a mobility scooter to get around. He's still active (I met him at a convention last month) but, I can see him going in a similar way to Richard Griffiths in a few years time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My gut says Bradley for some reason, but it will be close between him and Cleese. Margolyes seems like one of those people who can suffer ill health for many years but still somehow go on and on. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I intentionally cut off the notability at supporting cast members and omitted any extras from my list because the extended cast list is ridiculously long. There were 8 films after all. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
