As a fan of Batman, Doctor Who and monster movies, this is a real sad moment for me. He did have a long life, though, and as far as I know, it was a rich one. May he rest in peace.

He was the last decent character in the Batman movies once JS took over. Rest in Peace, Michael Gough.

Rest in peace, good man. No more will we stay a while, and listen...

He also played Cain in the Diablo series of videogames. Not as prominent a role as Alfred, sure, but a memorable one. Very sad news.
