The RIP thread...

Not many people you can recognise by just their initials. Great player.

Clinical finish by the great man

I'm Welsh, but being an F1 fan and probably a bit young, from I'd assume JJ Lehto...

Nobby Stiles RIP

Rip Sean Connery

aka James Bond

Who was he in the James Bond film?

Peter Smith

Frank Bough. A broadcasting legend, and soundtrack to my childhood Saturday afternoons. Knew how to enjoy himself, too, which sadly ended his TV career far too early.

Again? He's got no luck.

Not really a fan of Bond films. He was good in The Hill. RIP

I do wonder what he'll do in his second life, but I guess we'll soon find out.

RIP, dude. For Stella Street, I'm very grateful.

Real shame. He could be a bit luvvie-ish on occasion but his stage shows were surreal.

Absolutely loved John Sessions on Who's Line Is It Anyway, so sharp and clever.

Ditto. Super sharp.

Sad news, there was a time that anything worth watching had him in it. 93 though that's a good knock.
EDIT - remove link to Andrew Hall's death last year which I mistakenly thought was more recent.

1 Attachment

In a strange (and sad) quirk of fate Andrew Hall who played one of his sons (left of course) in Butterflies passed away on Monday .

Sadly there's another son death connection there. Nicholas Lyndhurt's 19 year old son died a few weeks ago.

That BBC article is dated May 2019?

My bad. Sorry. I saw it as a linked story and the fact it said 'Monday' I did not check the story date.

Brilliant actor, one of my faves as a child... RIP...
