Shame, long, long, long before my time however I did enjoy listening to Que Sera Sera, especially with how our recent history has gone. RIP.

Just before we lost Doris and Tim, we lost Peggy.

I'm old enough to remember her from The Mod Squad, others may know her from Twin Peaks.

RIP. x

Rip Torn gone at 88.

Man who fell to Earth, 30 Rock, Larry Sanders......Dodgeball.

Supposedly pulled a knife on Hopper on the set of Easy Rider, among other legends.

Quite the life he lead.

I’m sure Rutger must have his fans.

'Like tears in rain': Actor Rutger Hauer remembered for Blade Runner poetry

The Dutch actor's lines in the final minutes of Blade Runner, which he wrote the night before filming, have become especially poignant following his death at the age of 75.

Peter Fonda has passed away. Think the only movie I have seen starring him was Ghost Rider (which I saw being filmed in Melbourne many years ago)

 

[Robbo's my hero]

How Peter Fonda revolutionised Hollywood, but prophesied the end of the American Dream

Peter Fonda was the crucial link between the old, straight America and a new style of film-making willing to tell the world what was really going on in the bedrooms and streets of the nation.

Remembering James.

Very sad to learn Aron Eisenberg (Nog from Star Trek DS9) has passed away.

Deep Space Nine was my favourite Trek Series and Nog, Odo and Quark were my favourite characters.

Aron seemed like a very nice and sweet man on Twitter as well. He will be greatly missed
