RIP Christopher Lee

Honestly, when I read the news today I got a massive lump in my throat and actually shed a tear, no joke and I'm not ashamed to admit it.

R.I.P. to a truly great actor, one of the finest that have ever lived IMO, and a great guy too going by his interviews.

 
Francisco Scaramanga: When I was a boy I was brought up in a circus. My only real friend was a huge, magnificent African bull elephant. One day, his handler mistreated him and he went berserk. Bleeding, dying, he came and found me, stood on one leg, his best trick, picked me up and put me on his back. The drunken handler came along and emptied his gun into his eye... I emptied my stage pistol into his!

James Bond: An eye for an eye.

Francisco Scaramanga: You see, Mr. Bond, I always thought I loved animals. Then I discovered that I enjoyed killing people even more.
 
An absolutely fantastic life, man and career. One of my favourite screen presences and has the rare ability as an actor to be synonymous with more than one role.

Heartbroken at the news, thought he would live forever (or much longer).
 
The guy was one of my favourite actors, genuinely saddened another true gentleman has passed on.

R.I.P. Christopher Lee :(
