I just saw the news today. Simon MacCorkindale who helped co-direct Relic Hunter and played the famed villain we all know as Fabrice de Viega died of bowel cancer on October 14, 2010. He was the villain with the most repeat roles with a total of 3 episodes in total in Relic Hunter in its final season. Even other villains like Thomas Kretschman and Elias Zarou (Edward Patel) only had 2 episodes each.

What a sad day for MacCorkindale's family. I'm sure he will be missed. He was very active in the entertainment community making other films too.

Three years too late, but sad to hear of his passing. He played a great villain and sort of redeemed himself in the last episode.

It's one of those days...
