Patrick Stewart has died. I first saw him in Dune in 1985, then as Captain Picard in Star Trek TNG. What an amazing actor and long career. https://www.usatoday.com/story...k-x-men/92501699007/ ____________________________ Eeewwww, don't touch it! Here, poke at it with this stick. | ||

I saw him on Broadway, performing one man show/rendition of A Christmas Carol. He had a uniquely powerful & commanding presence. ____________________________________________________________ If Some is Good, and More is Better.....then Too Much, is Just Enough !!

I grew up watching TNG when it first aired... he was a great actor and a bad week for Star Trek Fans. Fair Winds and Following Seas, Captain. ------------------------------------------------ 9/11/01 Never Forget "In valor there is hope" - Tacitus | |||

They're all getting to be that age. "Checkov" from TOS died this week, too. | |||

He was a very skilled actor. His scenes verbally sparring with John Delancie (Q) were amazing. Fear God and Dread Nought Admiral of the Fleet Sir Jacky Fisher | |||

My favorite role of his was as Karla in the Smiley's People series on the BBC. Given my avatar, no one is surprised. It wasn't much of a role for him -- just two episodes and no lines! He was so young then (39 and 42 by episodes). From Claude: Patrick Stewart played Karla, Smiley’s Soviet opponent, in two of the BBC adaptations. He appears in one episode of each. Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy (1979): He appears in Episode 4, “How It All Fits Together.” Smiley recounts his one meeting with Karla, a flashback to the Delhi prison. Stewart’s performance is wordless, as the character is only glimpsed. Smiley’s People (1982): He appears in the final episode, Episode 6. This is where Smiley finally confronts Karla, in the Berlin bridge scene. He hands the lighter back, wordlessly. Only the gesture. Patrick Stewart and Alec Guinness!!! Please. How can you beat that!? | |||

X has been full of tributes to Patrick Stewart the man: generous philanthropist, patient to fans, hilarious out of character--a quiet hero. _________________________ “Good intentions will always be pleaded for every assumption of authority. It is hardly too strong to say that the Constitution was made to guard the people against the dangers of good intentions. There are men in all ages who mean to govern well, but they mean to govern.
