Following actor Paul Ritter's tragic death last night, people are reminiscing on some of his most memorable TV and film roles.
As well as playing dad Martin Goodman in Friday Night Dinner, he also starred in Sky drama Chernobyl and in James Bond film Quantum of Solace.
But, in case you need a reminder, the actor had a role in the sixth Harry Potter film, Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince.

Ritter played character Eldred Worple in the film franchise - a wizard who was once a favourite student of Professor Horace Slughorn (Jim Broadbent).
When Slughorn returns to Hogwarts to teach Harry Potter in his sixth year, he invites some of his old students - including Worple - to his 'Slug Club' Christmas party.
In the franchise, Worple is introduced to Harry Potter by Slughorn and tries to convince the boy wizard to let him write his biography.
However, Harry refuses the tempting offer, instead escaping to meet Hermione and Worple does not make any other appearances in the films or books.
