Travis Sheldon Posted December 27, 2023 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

(BP) Posted December 30, 2023 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.
Teflon Turtle Posted December 30, 2023 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. Edited December 30, 2023 by Teflon Turtle 1
