It strange what you remember when you hear news like this.
Shakespeare and Bob Hoskins wouldn't be most peoples first thoughts but I remember Studying Shakespeare a million years ago and seeing this performance (I read the play as well honest)
Shows what a versatile actor he was, he will be missed
He was actually very nice IRL too. We used to have the same dentist and he was always happy to chat on the 2/3 occasions when we found ourselves in the waiting room.
I was only 15 or 16 at the time and I can't even remember what we chatted about but I always remembered walking away thinking how awesome he was.
This is very worrying for me as I am a year younger than Bob - not only Bob but a load of film and Pop stars of our age have succumed to life's frailty - I am sure Bob had a much more varied life than I have had but by good fortune I am still holding on to life -
RIP Bob and who knows we might meet up in a few years time.
