"Ewen was a wonderful actor and an even better human being," the actress stated in a statement. He had such a good heart and could make people laugh. Everyone who came into contact with him had their lives impacted by him.
"After experiencing poor health for the last two years, Evan gently died away on February 19 from unspecified causes.
"The love and support that everyone has shown for Ewen has warmed his family, and they greatly appreciate it, but they would also like some privacy to grieve in peace during this extremely trying time. We shall really, truly miss Ewen. Godspeed, Ewen.
The most well-known character played by MacIntosh was Keith Bishop, the accountant for Wernham Hogg who desired to be a DJ and had a monotonous voicemail on his answering machine.
Among his most notable moments were when he dressed up as Ali G for Red Nose Day and consumed a scotch egg after giving Tim, played by Martin Freeman, incorrect love advise.
A cherished scene also included Keith and Gervais's character, David Brent, the office manager, giving each other an appraisal. After the accountant listed "accounts" as his strength and "eczema" as his weakness, Brent lost all control of his annoyance.
Additionally, MacIntosh had appearances in Little Britain and Miranda.
In a statement, the TV network Gold said, "We at Gold are saddened to hear that Ewen MacIntosh has passed away at the age of 50." Gold was among others who paid tribute.
As Keith on The Office, we adored him, and we had the good fortune to collaborate with him on the channel throughout the years. We are praying for his family and friends during this very trying time.
