Stars of the screen have been paying tribute to the Harry Potter and Cracker actor Robbie Coltrane who has died aged 72. The Scottish star was best known for playing the beloved Hogwarts gamekeeper Hagrid and criminal psychologist Dr Eddie ‘Fitz’ Fitzgerald in ITV’s crime drama Cracker.
His agent of 40 years Belinda Wright said that the 72 year old died on Friday (October 14), adding: “For me personally, I shall remember him as an abidingly loyal client as well as being a wonderful actor, he was forensically intelligent, brilliantly witty and after 40 years of being proud to be called his Agent, I shall miss him.”
Celebrity friend and colleague Stephen Fry said he would miss Coltrane's "depth, power and talent".
