Travis Sheldon Posted December 27, 2023 Share Posted December 27, 2023 Richard Franklin has died at age 87. He played Captain Yates of UNIT in Pertwee-era Doctor Who. I had forgotten about his cameo as a scientist in Star Wars Rogue One. Sad to see another classic Who actor gone. https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-67820877 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zimbra Posted December 30, 2023 Share Posted December 30, 2023 God, what a loss. If you haven't seen In The Bedroom it is exceptional and devastating. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(BP) Posted December 30, 2023 Share Posted December 30, 2023 Wilkinson was wonderful in the HBO movie Normal, about a mid-life gender transition, which feels more radical now than it did twenty years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teflon Turtle Posted December 30, 2023 Share Posted December 30, 2023 (edited) I think Tom Wilkinson's performance in Michael Clayton still stands as one of the better acting performances in film history. That movie as a whole is a bit underrated and the cast has other legendary performers, but he was absolutely captivating.
