A sad day for all LOTR fans.

He was a decent age, but shame he couldn't match Mr. Bilbo's Baggins.

Fly with the angels, Sir Ian.
There was also a Strange Elf clad in green and brown, Legolas,..... (FOTR, The council of Elrond)

Farewell Bilbo Baggins

I am saddened at Ian’s passing. Such a fine actor.
He was the first Bilbo I knew and made that character one of my favourites in the book.
He will always be my Bilbo. RIP Ian Holm.
He beheld white shores and beyond them a far green country under a swift sunrise.
