Sir Michael Gambon died in hospital aged 82 from a bout of pneumonia, and Harry Potter paid tribute to him today. Sir Laurence Olivier's 60-year career as Albus Dumbledore in six of JK Rowling's films began with him troding the boards with younger audiences. 'Magnificent Michael Gambon has died,'s Jason Isaacs, who starred Lucius Malfoy in the Harry Potter film series, posted a tweet.' I learned what acting in Michael's The Singing Detective is like - difficult, fragile, and utterly human. He knew my name and shared his fearless, filthy pleasure with me, which was the most thrilling part of being in the Potter films.' Fiona Shaw, an Irish film and television actress, has said she'll remember her Harry Potter co-star for being a "brilliant, majestic trickster." 'I will remember him because he was also a gun designer,' and he could trick the V&A into believing they were 18th century weapons,' says Shaw, who starred Petunia Dursley in the film franchise.' I'll remember him as a tweep, brilliant, dazzling trickster, but with text, there was no such thing as him, and he should do everything.'

The 2023 television BAFTA Awards have been revealed, and it's going to be one hell of a night. With six nods each, BBC's "This Is Going to Hurt" starring Ben Whishaw and BBC's "The Responder," starring Martin Freeman, top the board. "The Crown" on Netflix has received five accolades, and Channel 4's "Derry Girls" has been nominated for the Scripted comedy and Female role in a comedy series, thanks to Siobhán McSweeney's role as Sister Michael. Costar Nicola Coughlan and her two "best friends" McSweeney and Jack Rooke celebrated their nominations straight after the list was revealed. However, there were some snubs on the list. Despite the fact that the third series of "Happy Valley" was lauded for Sarah Lancashire and James Norton's superb acting, the BBC show did not feature on the list of candidates. "Where's 'Happy Valley' in this?", one fan asked on Twitter, while another questioned: "Did no one on the bafta committee watch Happy Valley????What even???" However, BAFTA's official Twitter retaliated about the allegations, alerting followers that the third season was not eligible for this year's awards, and that the 2024 BAFTAs will be chosen instead. On the drama series front page, "Peaky Blinders" was also skipped out. "It's a Sin" failed to win last year, despite being nominated for six awards, so concerns over outdated beliefs and the weight of awards have remained.
