Oh no, not another one! Not dickie!
Was only just watching Sea of sand last week.
Excellent in Brighton Rock and quite chilling as Christie in 10 Rillington place.
A british movie legend. Still loved him as X in Great Escape.
"...So Herr Bartlett, i hear zat your German ist very good. And alzo your French... Your handz.....Up!--.."
Of all the memories, my horror at him being caught as a ten year old has stayed with me.

What a rotten shock.
He was a magic talent both as a director and a performer.

Really sorry to hear this news and his friends and family are in my thoughts. I know he had been ill for some time and was in a care home.
I saw him introduce several of his films at an 80th birthday season at BFI in 2003.
Loved his work with John Barry on L Shaped Room, Seance On A Wet Afternoon and Chaplin.
He introduced John Barry when he received his BAFTA fellowship in 2005.
So many great films, Ghandi, Cry Freedom, The Sand Pebbles, The Great Escape, Oh What A Lovely War, Brannigan (!!) The list is almost endless.
May he Rest In Peace

Sad to hear of Sir Richard Attenborough's passing!
A Master Craftsman who has left behind an incredible legacy of work - R.I.P Dickie!
* I also enjoyed reading his Autobiography - Entirely Up To You, Darling!
