Stunned by the news of Stephen Critchlow’s passing. This is a typical snap of him in studio. He was such a talent – a chameleon behind the microphone – but also such a genuinely lovely, funny and generous human being. I feel lucky to have kept chatting through lockdown, but I missed his energy in studio. I think I got him in on almost every series as he was just such a delightful presence. The world will be a much, much sadder place without him.

What an awful year this has been. And now Critch has gone. Stephen Critchlow was not only a fine actor, he brightened all our lives just by being with us. He was the life and soul of every Green Room. He worked his butt off for you, and then entertained us all in the pub afterwards. He was always positive, always cheerful – he brought life and energy to even the most mediocre production. He cheered you up when you were down, and took the micky out of you if you were getting above yourself. He was a huge life-force. He was everyone’s friend. I simply can’t believe he’s no longer with us.

Am so saddened to hear of the passing of the powerhouse that was Stephen Critchlow. Hilarious, kind, naughty, witty and so much more. I was so lucky to have worked with him on so many occasions. He will be hugely missed by all.

Absolutely awful to hear of the passing of Stephen Critchlow. Always guaranteed to get a room laughing, always guaranteed to deliver a fine performance. Radio plays won’t be the same without the possibility of his name on the cast list. RIP

Only just learning of the terribly sad death of #StephenCritchlow – I know the Red Dwarf community will be especially gutted to lose one of their own. He made Chris Barrie and myself ache with laughter at #DimensionJump a few years back. A properly great guy.

Laurie Sansom
So sad to hear about the death of wonderful actor and man #StephenCritchlow who I had the pleasure of directing on so many occasions including Soap, Twelfth Night and Time of My Life @RoyalDerngate. He was full of mischief, kindness and will be missed.

James Rawlings
Devastated to hear about #StephenCritchlow. He lit up a room with his wit, enthusiasm and kindness, always. And so so funny. We had many happy times working together and I can’t believe there won’t be more. X RIP Critch

A great actor and wonderful man, Stephen Critchlow, has passed away. No one who saw Remains ever failed to say afterwards what a superb, magnetic performance he gave, and I so wanted to work with him again when all this was over. Bereft, but so proud to have known him.
