My Take
What I admire most about Richard Herd is the quiet craft of a lifelong character actor. From the 1970s through the 2010s he showed up, anchored a scene, and disappeared again without ever demanding the spotlight. His turn as the Visitors' commander in V earned him real affection in science fiction circles, but to me his legacy is broader than any single role. He was the kind of dependable presence that holds a production together. Actors like him rarely get marquee billing, yet they are the connective tissue of television. His passing in 2020 closed a genuinely honorable career.
