RIP, Jack Shepherd.
He attended Newcastle University Fine Art Dept, before going to drama school
He was a subtle and compelling actor who graced an extraordinary period of TV drama, as well as being a fine stage actor

‘The Valley Thick with Corn’ and ‘The Harvesters in the Firelight’- 2 seasonal pictures by Samuel Palmer. No one conveys the magic of late summer better

RIP, the beautiful Terence Stamp. Many fine performances, but
for me he will always be Captain Troy in ‘Far from the Madding Crowd’, riding over the hill in all his splendour

So sorry to see that Ray Brooks has died. He was a very fine actor, who I first saw in Cathy Come Home. He was in The Knack, and had many memorable television roles.
Shame that he is identified principally as the voice of Mr Benn by MSM
