Richard Biggs Memorial Video

Submitted by grumbler on Thu, 27/05/2004 - 23:03.

If you "right click" on this link:

[url]http://download.theforce.net/theater/temp/rickbiggs_320.mov[/url]

And select "save source as" you can download a rather moving video dedicated to the memory of Rick Biggs (aka "Doctor Franklin").

It will not play from the source (due to bandwidth restrictions, I think) so you have to save it locally.

Oh my gosh! I just found out the news. The news article I read said that it was possibly a stroke. Unbelievable. His Dr. Franklin character was the reason I became seriously interested in B5. I told him so at a con and he was very pleased.

Biggs died of an aortal tear, according to the LA Times. It is, unfortunately, almost instantly fatal.

I had heard that he died of a pulminary embolism (I tend to get information second/third hand so I don't know if it's right or not)

It was quite saddenning to learn of his death as I liked the Franklin charector (if they kept Crusade going he should have had more appearences) and he was certainly a very good Actor :(
