Elphias Doge has joined Dumbledore.

Thanks to The Daily Mirror.

There are pictures and a video at the site.


Quote:


Harry Potter star David Ryall has died age 79.

The actor, who played Elphias Doge, passed away on Christmas Day.

Sherlock writer and actor Mark Gattis tweeted the sad news yesterday.



He wrote: “The great David Ryall left us on Christmas Day. A twinkling, brilliant, wonderful actor I was privileged to call a friend. RIP.”



David’s daughter Charlie Ryall tweeted: “Please take a moment to remember his huge five-decade-spanning career outside of the more well-known TV & film. Not just Harry Potter.

The actor’s career spans more than five decades and covers film, TV and theater. His movie credits include 2008’s “City of Ember,” 2004’s “Around the World in 80 Days” and 1980’s “The Elephant Man.”

Ryall replaced Peter Cartwright as Elphias Doge in 2010’s “Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1.”

His character was a close friend of Albus Dumbledore in addition to being a Ministry of Magic jurist and the Order of the Phoenix member.

(Don't you just love how the author talk A LOT about his role in HP - then quotes the daughter as saying to not think all he did was Potter - so the author immediately goes back to more Doge comments. * shakes head at writer's obliviousness * )
