ALAN RICKMAN DIED TODAY . . .


The terribly tragic news of the passing of Alan Rickman, has just been announced. Although he never had the chance to work with Peter Cushing, he too was such a kind, talented and gifted man... in 1991 he too played the Sheriff of Nottingham on the big screen in Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves. Until that point there was only one Sheriff for me... Truly Madly, Deeply, Die Hard, Love Actually and the Harry Potter films... a huge lost..
