Actor Jacob Margido Espe has reportedly died Title.
He passed away on Tuesday in a hospital in Gran Canaria, as a result of feeling unwell while swimming on November 28.
After two weeks in an artificial coma, he died peacefully on Tuesday evening, his niece, Therese Espe, told Idrissa.
Esp lived to be 80 years old.
– He lost the entire universe
Born on 7 June 1943 in Pinset in Trondheim, he worked at the Trondelag Theater for a number of years. He is perhaps best known for his role as Fleetfried Andersen, a role that was first introduced to audiences via radio.
The success was immediate, and Fleetfried eventually became a popular figure performing on several stages across the country.
On the occasion of his 80th birthday, he told Adrisa that he had not drawn the character for ten years.
– It’s been 30 years with Fleetfried, and that’s a lot for a character like this, many of which don’t last long. This was one of the things he said to the newspaper in connection with the anniversary day, which happened on June 7 this year.
For the past 25 years, Esp has lived in Trondheim.
