Daniel Radcliffe has remembered his Harry Potter co-star Robbie Coltrane as "one of the funniest people" and "an incredible actor".
The Scottish actor's agent Belinda Wright confirmed the star, best known for his role as Rubeus Hagrid in the series of films, died aged 72 on Friday. Radcliffe, who starred in the lead role in the fantasy series, worked closely with Coltrane throughout the eight films.
Radcliffe shared fond memories from set in a statement shared with the PA news agency, saying: "Robbie was one of the funniest people I've met and used to keep us laughing constantly as kids on the set. I've especially fond memories of him keeping our spirits up on Prisoner of Azkaban, when we were all hiding from the torrential rain for hours in Hagrid's hut and he was telling stories and cracking jokes to keep morale up.
