Rest in peace. I loved him in everything I ever saw him in.

One of my favorite scenes of his is in Chariots of Fire where he plays Abraham's track coach and they're at the Paris Olympics. He's so nervous he can't stand to be at the event so he's back in his hotel room awaiting the news, and he knows Abraham has won the gold medal when he hears "God Save the King" being played. That scene is a masterpiece.
