Robert Hardy
Actor -- via the BBC. A beloved and long-lived veteran of stage and screen, equaly at home in Shakespeare and comedy. He played an excellent Prince Hal for the BBC in 1960; later, he became quite familiar in the character of veterinarian Siegfried in "All Creatures Great and Small." Younger filmgoers know him as Cornelius Fudge in the Harry Potter films. He aged well!
