Famous for playing Yosser Hughes (Gissa job) in 'Boys from the black stuff' through to Lord of the Rings and Titanic, he was a very versatile actor and will be sorely missed :(
The name rings a bell, though I've never seen the show you mention. What part did he play in Lord of the Rings?
RIP Bernard.
He was the king of Rohan in the LOR trilogy,
loved him in Boys from the black stuff, should try and find that on a streaming service to watch again.
The new series of 'The Responder' started on BBC1 last night and he plays Martin Freeman's father so that was probably his last acting part
