20 Harry Potter Actors Who Are No Longer With Us

13. Timothy Bateson - Kreacher

You may not recognise Timothy Bateson's face - though he was a hugely versatile and prolific screen actor appearing (as many Potter actors did) in Doctor Who as well as Grange Hill, Dad's Army and several Charles Dickens adaptations.

As well as his role as Kreacher in The Order Of The Phoenix, Bateson will also forever be remembered as the voice of The Worm in Labyrinth.

His voice work as the cantankerous old house elf proved to be his last role, and after his death on 16th September 2009, he was replaced by Simon McBurney for Harry Potter And The Deathly Hallows Part 1.
