Simon Fisher-Becker, who starred in Harry Potter and Doctor Who, has died, aged 63. His agent, Kim Barry from Jaffrey Management, shared a heartfelt statement: "Today I lost not only a client in Simon Fisher-Becker, but a close personal friend of 15 years standing.
I shall never forget the phone call I made to him when he was offered the part of Dorium Moldovar in BBC's Dr Who." She continued: "Simon was also a writer, a raconteur and a great public speaker.
He helped me out enormously and was kind, gracious and interested in everyone. My condolences go to his husband Tony, his brother, nieces and nephews and his legion of fans." Simon's husband, Tony, also shared his heartbreak in a Facebook post on Saturday, writing: "Hello everyone.This is Tony, Simon's husband.
I have some very sad news. At 2:50 this afternoon Simon passed away. I'll be keeping this account open for a while. I'm not sure at this point if I'll be posting again.Thank you."
