Good Night Robbie
RIP Robbie Coltrane

I know he'll always be remembered as Hagrid - and with good reason, he was amazing - but to me, Robbie Coltrane is also Samuel Johnson in Blackadder the Third and Valentin Zukovsky in the Bond films GoldenEye and The World is Not Enough.

I don't even know at what point he entered my childhood (probably was Blackadder tbh), but I do remember being utterly thrilled to hear his casting as Hagrid. Alongside Alan Rickman and Maggie Smith, it was inspired casting.

Rest in Peace, Robbie. I hope your family and friends find comfort and solace over the next few weeks.
