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.
