A truly great actor who will be sorely missed as he made some memorable films and TV series that will live long in the memory.
RIP Sir John

Re: Sir John Hurt: Bafta-winning actor dies aged 77
One of my favourite actors. Only a few days ago I was thinking how old and frail he looked.
Watched a film called 'Jackie' the other night (about Jackie Kennedy's life right after the assassination of JFK ) he plays a priest in it.
Sad news and we're still only in January.

Re: Sir John Hurt: Bafta-winning actor dies aged 77
I remember him well in the naked civil servant, Caligula in I Claudius and who can forget that alien scene?
RIP John and thank you.

Sir John grew up in Blundell Avenue, Cleethorpes, and spent many an afternoon watching Grimsby Town play. He was also a regular at the outdoor swimming pool in the resort.

he grew up a short walk from my house
a great actor who will be missed .

So sad. I am already hating 2017.
Rest in Peace Sir John.
