Demon Headmaster actor Terrence Hardiman dies aged 86
By Paul GlynnEntertainment reporter
Actor Terrence Hardiman , best known for playing the title role in The Demon Headmaster, has died aged 86.
His agent announced The News with " great sadness" describing him as " beloved client and much-loved stage and screen actor".
Hardiman petrified A Generation of kids with his performance in the CBBC series, which first ran from 1996 to 1998.
He reprised The Role for a cameo when the series was rebooted in 2019.
Based on The Children 's books of the Same Name by Gillian Cross , The Demon Headmaster saw Hardiman's lead character cut a frightening figure.
He kept his piercing Green Eyes largely hidden, ominously, behind dark glasses, only removing them to hypnotise his victims after telling them: " Look into my eyes. "
'Horrible character'around The Time of his slight return in 2019, Hardiman recalled what he first thought about being cast to play him.
" I thought, 'what a horrible character. How lovely. A real villain of a piece. Why Not ?'"
He went on to say he had had " no idea" that the series would Go On to be so popular with children and adults alike.
" I started to be recognised in The Street , especially as I lived near schools around here, in North West London, " he explained. " And there were People - youngsters - Looking at me, and shouting out at me, and making fun of me, which is very healthy.
" It stopped me being too grand! "
Born in 1937 in East London , Hardiman studied English at the University of Cambridge, where he got the acting bug.
He performed for university's amateur dramatic club, alongside future big names including Derek Jacobi .
A star of the screen and stage, Hardiman appeared as Mephistophilis in Doctor Faustus at The Royal Shakespeare Theatre in Stratford-upon-Avon, in 1968.
He went on to appear in other TV series such as The Crown , Doctor Who and Prime Suspect , as well as Wallander, often playing figures of authority.
His other credits include Bergerac, Colditz, Minder and Secret Army .
Hardiman is Survived By his wife Rowena and Two Children .
