Alan Sidney Patrick Rickman 21 February, 1946 - 14 January 2016. Rickman died aged 69 from cancer, he was surrounded by his family. I recently discovered he was in Love Actually after watching it for the first time, however we all knew him as Severus Snape from the Harry Potter series. For some of us it feels like a part of our childhood has died, I grew up watching him as Snape, a character we all misunderstood. He was a great actor and a the perfect person to play Severus Snape so I thought I would post a mini tribute.

“Detention, Saturday night, my office,” said Snape. “I do not take cheek from anyone, Potter . . . not even ‘the Chosen One.’”
