“Lance Corporal Scofield is indestructible. You are not. Remember this, and do not try to imitate him…”

Have to make a slightly bigger coffin to fit those three buttocks.

Billy Graham’s height was 1.87m, which should have been no surprise – Cliff liked tall speakers.

While we’re at it, let us note a couple of other departures worth noting…

Buck Henry, a writer/director/actor who I’ll admit I thought had already expired. He co-created Get Smart, one of the few 60s TV sitcoms […]

Bo Winberg has gone beyond at the age of 80. He’s worth noting as lead guitarist for Swedish outfit The Spotnicks, who are best remembered for two things: wearing spacesuits (or Fireball XL5-type equivalents) and […]

DownUndersters Frente! were there in 1994 with an antipodean entry…

I dread to think of some Hollywood exec already casting the remake in his/her head.
