Spoiler:

We have some sad news today, regarding a young actor who is due to appear in the upcoming Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince. The Telegraph is reporting that Robert Knox, who plays the part of Ravenclaw student (and Slug Club hopeful) Marcus Belby, has been tragically killed in an incident that took place in London last night. The paper reports that 18 year old Robert Knox went to the aid of his younger brother, and was fatally stabbed in a knife incident in a bar in the Sidcup area near London, England. Police spokesman say “A man aged 21 has been arrested on suspicion of murder. He is being held in custody.” CBBC Newsround now has a statement from Warner Bros that echoes our thoughts here at TLC, as it reads “We are all shocked and saddened by this news and at this time our sympathies are with his family.” We will continue to follow this story and will update with more when we can.

Oh, what a shame, I feel awful for the family. They have a suspect in custody, so that makes me feel better.

Even if they already had his part, it is still tragic.

David Yates directed Order of the Phoenix. And I don't think that tragedy is anywhere compared with someone dying.

The death of Richard Harris. I wouldn't say it was "more" tragic... since I would never say one person's death was more tragic than another's, b ut it was sad all the same.
Dame Maggie Smith was also fairly recently diagnosed with cancer, but is expected to make a full recovery.
