(sorry, if this has to be moved, or closed or whatever..)

Actor John Thaw died at his home yesterday, at the age of 60, from throat cancer which he had been battling for a long time.............

His family were around him.......

Fans are going to miss a greatly loved actor who was brilliant from The Sweeney to Inspector Morse.........

He was a brilliant actor indeed.....Im sure a lot of u are familiar......

Peace be with you John............

Amen Mad1 !!
He will be missed greatly.
I often wondered how much acting was involved with the characters of Reagan and Morse. I think there was a lot of himself there.
God bless him.

Ah, that's a shame. He was great as Morse. The last thing I saw him in was a tv movie about a year ago, I think. He played a plastic surgeon whose marriage is falling apart. His illness must have been quite sudden.
