It is with great sadness that we report that Jeffrey Perry, who played Tumnus in BBC’s 1988 television adaptation of “The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe,” has passed away at the age of 63. He was found dead in his home last Saturday. Please join NarniaWeb as we offer our condolences to his family. Read more. Thanks to ‘220ChrisTian’ for the alert.
How sad! I want to express my condolences to his family. I hope that I will get the chance to meet the first Mr. Tumnus in Aslan's Country someday!
My prayers go out to his family. He will always hold a special place in the memory of this Narnia fan. I remember the days, where I would race home from school and eagerly watch the as the next enstallment of Narnia aired on tv. My favourite scene was when Lucy met Mr Tumnus.
Mr Perry…further up and further in!
God Bless.

May you, Jeffery Perry's family, think of this time as just a waiting period before being together for eternity. Hang in there guys. :')
And only 63, very sad. I thank Mr. Perry for his great portrayal of Mr. Tumnus, the one I grew up watching.
Sadness gives us to receive this news that the character died and the author of that great role that is Narnia Mr. Tumnus
I'm sad to hear of his passing 🙁 he did played a decent Mr. Tumnus. The only Mr. Tumnus I ever saw growing up.
sorry to hear that Jeffrey Perry passed away at the age of 63.
hope the family holds up real well.
I do or did think that Jeffrey Perry did play a nice role in playing the part of Mr. Tumnus-the fawn.
What a shame. I hope they discover the cause of death soon. I offer my condolences to his family.
He was a good Tumnus. RIP.
Who deleted my comment, it was the first one, and I offered my comdolences and didn't say anything wrong! What's with this?
I offer my most heartfelt condolences for his family and friends. I just hope that they will be able to find the cause of such a beloved actor. I do hope that he was murdered like Bob Crane was, that story was enough to make me upset but to have another actor murdered like him would be more than a little heart-breaking and I could not handle another tragic tale as that. I do wish I could offer more heartfelt words in a poem written personally by me to his grieving family and friends.
That's really sad. Rest In Peace Jeffrey. You will be missed.
