"The Lord of the Rings" actor Bernard Hill has passed away at 79. The english actor was also known for his role as Captain Edward Smith in the 1997 film, "Titanic."
Hill's big break came in 1982 when he starred in the BBC2 program, "The Black Stuff," as Yosser Hughes, a working-class man riddled with obstacles including the loss of his job. His character's catchprase, "Gizza' job!" ("Give us a job") was frequently used by dissidents of conservative Margaret Thatcher due to the unemployment rate being high.
