95 though - that's a good old crack at it.

Love how he just left that hanging, then went for a surf

I was just reading an obituary for Bob Duvall and there was no mention of him starring alongside Ally McCoist in A Shot at Glory.

A lot of it was filmed at Boghead. Surely his career highlight

He also produced it

I honestly thought Robert Duvall had died years ago.

I was sure it was not long after the football film mentioned above.

The Rev. Jesse Jackson is away at 84.

It's Different for Girls was a sublime track.

Even after all those years I'm pretty sure I could sing along and remember every word. 

 

JJ RIP

I think it was just his reputation that died after that film.

Jesse Jackson gone at 84.

A lot of great work for not much real progress (and more recently, the gradual undoing of any progress that might have been made )

Edit: Just saw Swaddons earlier post

I dug it out and had another listen anyway. Joyous.

Neil Sedaka has died at 86.

Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.

A great loss to the mad, mad world of dictators.

He shall always be remembered with a deep fondness and the cowardly dogs who slew him from afar as if they were playing a TV game shall burn for eternity. Insha'Allah.

I had actually never seen that film but found it on YouTube the day he died and watched it.

Another nonce bites the dust. John Alford, formerly of Grange Hill and London's Burning, has been found dead in his cell at HMP Bure.
