Heath Ledger Died unexpectedly this week, on Tuesday (22nd Jan 2008) at the age of just 28.

Early news reports suggested that his death may have been the result of a drugs overdose, as his body was apparently discovered “surrounded” by pills. His housekeeper made the discovery when he failed to answer the door for a massage appointment in his New York appartment.

He may be most remembered for his performance in Brokeback Mountain, a role in which he was nominated for an Oscar.

but I’ll remember him more for an earlier film of his, A Knights Tale in 2001, which I thoroughly enjoyed.
