...for British fans of a certain age. Michael Sheard, Doctor Who regular, Star Wars Darth Vader victim, Grange Hill's most feared staff member and general Convention Tart has died at the age of 65 from cancer.

For many people it was Grange Hill's Mr Bronson that people most remember him for but for me it is his turn as Lawrence Scarman in the Doctor Who story The Pyramids of Mars (possibly my favourite story) that I will remember him for.

Oh, that is very sad news. Rats.

I had a nice conversation with him via email awhile back. Seemed like a very nice person, and I'll miss him.
