The magnificent Ben Cross as Harold Abrahams in ‘Chariots of Fire’ captured the burden of being an outsider, the hostility toward his Jewish antecedents & how even success is isolating: “With 10 lonely seconds to justify my existence.” You won gold - now rest from your running. pic.twitter.com/Wjene9yKxQ

Sad to hear Ben Cross passed away today. Did a great UK tour with him back in the day, followed by a run at the Queens in the West End, in The Caine Mutiny (with @RichardLinford). Very driven actor, very highly-charged. RIP. pic.twitter.com/PPuly2qQet

I'm still in shock and saddened to know that my friend of many years, Ben Cross, had passed away today. For years I was his agent, then his manager and always his friend. The world is a little less interesting today knowing that Ben is no longer here. RIP Ben pic.twitter.com/pAcvXzOej2
