Always liked to see Ken Hutchinson show up in something I was watching, he was a good actor and always good value.

72 is young to go.

RIP.

A shame that people still can't get his name right...

RIP Ken

God ! I was only thinking about him yesterday - that's a shame to learn as he was a captivating actor who always held your attention.

RIP Sir

Being American I have only seen him play, with the exception of Sweeney2, unhinged loonies which he did exceptionally well.

Rest In Peace

I never knew this and shocked to learn he was still only 72. Should have been a far bigger actor than he was.

Was watching him in the excellent Play for Today 'Just a Boy's Game' last month on BBC Scotland and in which he was excellent and proved he could easily do non hard man roles.

Last IMDB entry was from 1999.

RIP
