RIP. He was a great actor.
I would agree I remember him from Pie In Sky and other more notable roles rather than the Harry Potter films.

Indeed i remember him too from Pie in the sky, but most people recognise him as Uncle Vernon, hence the title.

WB studios, have sent condolences via there facebook page, with a picture of his wand box, ( i never found that one when i was there )
