    Surprised he was only 65, he always seemed to look 65.

    He's arguably destined to be remembered primarily as either Uncle Monty or Uncle Vernon, neither of which is a bad legacy, but he's terrific as Henry Allardyce in A Private Function, which I only watched about two weeks ago. So many good people in that film, and several no longer with us: Denholm Elliott, Pete Postlethwaite and now Richard Griffiths. :(
