That's sad to hear. He wasn't all that old either. The first thing I saw him in was probably QI, but when I started hearing his distinct voice in Who, I always thought "hey, it's John Sessions!"
Just listened to The Conspiracy the other day for the Anniversary listen-through and he does an excellent job there.
I'll have to check out some of his Whose Line work - somehow I haven't actually seen much of the original UK series!

Oh, damn...  I'll always remember him as Tannis from Death Comes to Time. A frightening, charismatic and thoroughly compelling villain. It's got to be well over a decade since I last listened to it, but I still get chills remembering his performance. Sad news. |

From Whose Line is it Anyway, to Stella Street; from Gormenghast to his excellent performances/readings of Charles Dickens for The Signalman and Other Ghostly Stories, John Sessions was one of those actors who never seemed to age. I'm very sad he has gone. RIP. |

'Don't agitate, guy!'
He'll always be Lord Penistone from The New Statesman for me; a one off character brought so amazingly to life he could have had his own series!
RIP
