Scottish actor Gerard Kelly has died. He was 51. The star, who appeared in Ricky Gervais' hit show "Extras", passed away on Thursday, October 28 after suffering a brain aneurysm. Kelly was admitted to West Middlesex University Hospital, west London on Tuesday, October 26 after a friend found him collapsed at his home in the British capital. He died two days later.
The actor enjoyed a long career on the small screen in his native Britain, appearing in soap operas such as EastEnders and Brookside, as well as other shows including City Lights, Rab C Nesbitt and Extras.
