RIP R2D2.

Kenny Baker the actor who literally steered Star Wars robot legend R2D2 has sadly passed away aged 83. May the force be with him.

Noticed on the news that his nephew was keen to point out that Baker's favourite performance was the one he did in Time Bandits. That's a genius bit of filming, easily as good as Star Wars in its own way. He had a good innings, RIP.
