Richard Briers – a life in photos

RIP Richard Briers. You lived The Good Life moved in Ever Decreasing Circles. You were the voice of Fiver in Watership Down. You made it look easy, like you weren’t acting. Emphysema killed him. As he said:“I was diagnosed five years ago and didn’t think it would go quite as badly as it has. It’s a bugger, but there it is. I used to love smoking.”
