British actor Robert Hardy, who played the Minister of Magic Cornelius Fudge in the films of the saga of the Boy magician Harry Potter, died at 91 years, today reported his family. In addition to the role in the film adaptations of writer J.K. Rowling's novels, Hardy was known for the television series All Creatures Great and small, which the British public network BBC issued between 1978 and 1990.

His sons-Emma, Justine and Paul-lamented the end of the "tremendous life" of the actor, who cultivated a "gigantic career of more than 70 years in the theatre, television and cinema". "Dad will also be remembered as a meticulous linguist, a brilliant artist, a music lover and a literary champion," they underlined in a statement.

Robert Hardy began his professional career in the decade of 1950 as a classical actor, performing various works of the British playwright William Shakespeare in both theater and television. The BBC counted on him for a long-haul series for the first time in 1966, when he joined the distribution of the troubleshooters, which lasted up to 1970.

Between 1978 and 1980 he participated in the first stage of all Creatures Great and small, and only a year later, in 1981, he was honored by Queen Elizabeth II as commander of the Order of the British Empire for his artistic merits.

Robert Hardy was, in addition, the face of the former British Prime Minister Winston Churchill on several occasions, most known of them the television drama Winston Churchill: The Wilderness Years (1981), by which it won a BAFTA award. In recent years, Hardy was famous for his participation in the Harry Potter saga, in which he appeared for the first time in 2002, on the tape Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets. Up to 2007, he embodied in three other films Cornelius Fudge, one of the magic ministers of the fictitious world created by Rowling.
