Always an actor worth watching. Here's the The York Times obituary:

They didn't even have a full obit on file for him.

My son is heartbroken. Rickman was his idol.

Two revered British artists dying of the same disease at the same age in the same week. What a terrible loss to see two such talents silenced, and much too soon.

This was sad and shocking to hear, especially so soon after David Bowie.

It was a pleasure listening to him. Another sad loss.

I am heartbroken, longtime crush. Fine actor, fine director, fine writer and perfection as Snape.

I first saw him in the Brit series Barchester Towers. Quite a good first impression!
