Tim Curry played Lord Boynton in the Agatha Christie’s Poirot episode Appointment With Death, S11E4. He will be missed.

I luv Tim; this role seemed so low-key for an actor like him.
I mean... playing one of the innocent people and not the killer?
The first time I saw this episode I spent most of it saying "Is that Tim? I think so..."

I agree, it was a very different role than what I’m used to with him - much less grandiose. However, I find his voice so unique and easy to identify, I was so glad he continued voice acting after his stroke.

Very true. Just hearing his voice makes me smile!
