The Scottish actor died today aged 72y.
A great actor.

So sad. Excellent in so many things. My favourite being Cracker. It is on the ITV hub and I will definitely keep going back to watch it and remember what a great actor he was.

Eek volver! I always got their faces mixed up.
Gleeson is Irish.
Born in Dublin and he’s 67y.

One of the few who stood up for JK too. So long Robbie, thanks for everything.

I second that.

I occurred to me a while back that I hadn’t heard anything of him for a while. Was so sad to hear this. RIP

So sorry to hear this. I thought he was the perfect Hagrid, but I first saw him in Nuns on the Run. I wonder if they’ll rerun Cracker.
RIP Robbie

That is sad. He was a unique personality, very special.
