Those of you who were children of the 90's and who have maybe been watching re-runs of 'Fresh Prince of Bel Air' on Viva and other stations will know who James Avery was, as he was the big lovable strict but fair 'Dad' in the series. That's what he is best known for and not many people know that he was the voice of 'Shredder' in the 'Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle's' cartoons from the late 80's onwards. You've no doubt smiled when you've seen him in various film roles too as he just seemed like a right good guy who was always down for a laugh.

 

He'll be sadly missed and I have to admit I can actually feel a tear in my eye typing this as I think back on some brilliant scenes and lines I have heard from him in my lifetime.
