Just wanted tostart this thread in tribute to an actor described by Steven Spielberg as "the greatest actor in the world"

I'm surprised there were no threads for him yesterday, but let's leave tributes to him here

RIP Sgt Hakeswill!

    Aw when the hell did this happen?

    Great actor, really made me want Richard Sharpe to knock his block off.

    I find it surprising that (at the time of me writing this comment) there are only 20 posts on that thread.
