This is sad, the great Bond, in my opinion, but a fine actor too, a genuinely charismatic star of the silver screen...

Personally, and collectively, it just seems like it doesn't stop. A terrible run of losing great people.

How sad to read Jessica Walter has passed away in her sleep, aged 80.

Loved her especially in the movie Play Misty for Me, 50 years ago.

Great scene here where Psycho Evelyn really fires both barrels at Dave (Clint Eastwood) including a few choice words.

R.I.P Don Everly. He was 84. What an awesome legacy the brothers Everly have left us, including with their solo years?

Song is actually called "Nice Guys" waxed in 1962 (almost a remake of "Wake up Little Susie") but did not see the light of day until 1984 on a U.K only album.

Australian radio and television legend Bert Newton M.B.E has passed away in Melbourne last (saturday) evening, aged 83. A remarkable career that stretches as long ago as the 1950's.

In this country before anyone did ANYTHING Bert did EVERYTHING ! R.I.P

There was a memorable incident from 1978 TV Logies awards that almost got Bert in spot of bother with Ali. He was not trying to be racist, but calling someone "boy" in this country is regular normally by old people who say it to the younger folks. Bert clearly was unaware that the phrase held different meaning to americans. It was a measure of Bert's showman skill that he was able to turn this into a comedy skit.

It's been a full year and a month since we lost Sir Sean Connery. Did anyone else feel that his role in the Highlander was one of his Best?( Btw Queens soundtrack for that movie was the BEST). I think he had more fun playing in that movie as he did in some of his work as James Bond. IMO

Yeah, I enjoyed him in that. Actually, I loved the Highlander television series, I thought it was brilliant. They’re remaking the film, Henry Cavill is signed up to play the main role, but I don’t know if it’ll be Conor or Duncan MacLeod or some new character…
