He never sold us short when playing Bilbo Baggins.

88. A good innings that. Which meant he was into his 60s when he did the Lord of the Rings. I didn't realise that, nor how many films he'd done.

All things considered, 88 is young for a hobbit.
Bilbo was at least eleventy-one.

Sounds like he was a bit of a ladies man too!
Some fantastic roles - hadn’t realised that was him in Chariots of Fire.
A sad loss.
RIP.

Steve is definitely adept at finding anything with that description, always worth reading/ looking at anything he posts.

He was in a film called Singletons Pluck which was about a farmer who walked his 5000 geese from Narfuk to London. Bits of were filmed in Suffolk (Including Clare). Excellent Actor.

The Guardian constantly delivers. It's left-leaning of course, but doesn't display it's bias through cringeworthy faux outrage (Mail/Express) or downright lies and propaganda (Telegraph), and is largely factually correct. A few of the opinion columnists are an aquired taste, but some of the stuff around the edges is either top quality investigative journalism or distractingly delightful. That piece yesterday about the sports photographer filming long tailed tits being a case in point.
