Richard Harris - Headlines

[bluesqueak]

A couple of our UK newspapers have announced his death by headlines 
saying 'Dumbledore is dead'.

Several radio and tv commentators have pointed out that this is an 
incredibly stupid headline, which is probably going to upset a lot 
of young HP fans. The presenter Jonathan Ross remarked it was rather 
like having a headline saying 'Santa Claus has died'.

Anyway, thanks to Joywitch for expressing what I was also thinking. 
Harris was a lovely, amusing, talented actor - but boy, was he 
phoning in his performance as Dumbledore in Philosopher's Stone. 

My sympathies are with his family and friends ( and his death upset 
me as well). We lost a great actor yesterday - but Dumbledore was 
not his greatest role.
