Director says of Richard Griffiths: 'He was my favourite'

Thea Sharrock, who directed Richard Griffiths in Equus, Heroes and Sunshine Boys, said of the actor:

Everybody knew he was my favourite. He was the most tender, gentle, kind, generous, loving man.

His curiosity was unending, as was his striving for perfection. I cannot imagine a world without all those stories.

I will miss him so very very much.
