==Film Deaths==
*Wilde (1997) [Oscar Wilde]: Dies (off-screen) of meningitis; his death is mentioned in the on-screen text at the end of the movie.
*V for Vendetta (2005) [Gordon Dietrich]: Executed off-screen by Tim Pigott-Smith after being arrested by soldiers in front of Natalie Portman. He later reappears at the end, as a spirit to say farewell.
*The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies (2014) [Master of Lake-town]: Crushed to death when the corpse of the dragon Smaug (voiced by Benedict Cumberbatch) falls on the boat he's using to tow away his gold.
*Alice Through the Looking Glass (2016) [Cheshire Cat]: Providing the voice of a cat, he is turned into a rust statue. (He is restored when the Grand Clock Engine and the Chronosphere are reconnected.)
*Missing Link (2019; animated) [Lord Piggot-Dunceby]: Falls through a bridge made of ice to his death.
==Television Deaths==
*The Young Ones: Bambi (1984) [Lord Snot]: Killed in a (comical) explosion when Adrian Edmondson throws a grenade at Stephen's team during a game show; we see a flash of light and smoke, then four empty chairs where the team had been.
*Blackadder II: Chains (1986) [Lord Melchett]: Stabbed to death (off-screen), along with the rest of the cast, by Hugh Laurie. His body is shown lying of the floor with the others afterwards, with the killer standing over them disguised as Miranda Richardson (indeed, he's actually played by Miranda with Hugh's voice dubbed in).
*Blackadder's Christmas Carol (1988) [Lord Melchett/Lord Frondo]: As "Lord Frondo," he is disintegrated (along with Patsy Byrne and Hugh Laurie) with a futuristic device by Rowan Atkinson, in Rowan's vision of "Christmas Future." (Played for comic effect, obviously.)
*The Life and Death of Peter Sellers (2004) [Maurice Woodruff]: Dies (off-screen) of a heart attack on 28 January 1973.
*Doctor Who: Spyfall Part One (2020) [C]: Shot in the back of the neck with an energy blast from a sniper rifle by Sacha Dhawan, while Jodie Whittaker and the others look on in shock.
