I don't think my heart can be broken much further.

My hero, David Bowie, passed away and now the legendary actor, Alan Rickman - both at the same age, for the same reason.

Who was Alan Rickman?

Alan Rickman was simply an actor. But he was one of the best actors I've ever seen. He really knew how to take a character off from the pages of a script and breathe life into it.

Alan has acted in over 45 movies and I have had the privilege of seeing him in eleven of them: Die Hard, Sense and Sensibility, Truly Madly Deeply and all eight Harry Potter films.

He is absolutely phenomenal, and all his fellow actors can agree that he was a pleasure to work with.

He has been an inspiration to all those aspiring actors and actresses out there and to me he will always be remembered as our dryly humorous Professor Severus Snape.

Rest In Peace
