In 2008, Patrick Stewart came to give the South Shields Lecture. People still talk about it. He gave a brilliant evocation of how his upbringing made him an actor and a socialist. And he was hilarious about his job interview for Picard. Great man.

Such sad news. Sir Patrick Stewart was a wonderful inspiration, friend and supporter. From London to South Shields to New York, he always brought principle, talent, kindness, intelligence and laughter. I will miss him.
