I can't believe she was nearly 40 in 'Carry On Screaming'. She was gorgeous in that. RIP Fenella

I remember back in 1977/78 with some of my school pals saying 'Smokey and the Bandit' was the best film ever. Three or four years later it came out on VHS and I saw it for the first time. To be honest I was quite underwhelmed by it. I just didn't buy into "Comedy Burt". I saw the sequel and really didn't like that. I also didn't like "Comedy Burt" in 'The Cannonball Run I' and II. If you take account of inflation 'Smokey and The Bandit' is one of the highest grossing films of all time. I wasn't a fan of his comedy films. I much preferred him in 'Deliverance' and 'Hustle'.

RIP Jacqueline Pearce. Another member of the Blake’s 7 cast sadly departed. She really was a sexy villain on the show. Talking about Blake’s 7 I recently read that Paul Darrow who played Avon had both his legs amputated in 2015 after an illness and is now in a wheelchair. I didn't know that about Paul Darrow.

I've always liked her in everything she was in as well as Blake's 7. Another part of my childhood gone. RIP Jacqueline

Great actor in various roles. Secret Army is one of my all-time favourite programmes.
RIP Bernard.

I loved Dear John. It's one of my favourite sitcoms and he was great as Kirk St Moritz.
RIP Peter

When I read the thread title I thought it was the British singer who did 'Is She Really Going Out With Him?'.

I liked him in his role as Dirty Den. I watched EastEnders while Den & Angie were in it. I'm not a fan of him as a person and I'll keep a dignified silence like MIAS.

I'm not a big boxing fan but I've seen the interesting piece about him on Sky Sports News and he was a great man.

I was shocked when I heard this whilst watching the Darts Premier League last night.
The first Darts match I can remember watching on TV was the 1980 World Championship Final where he beat Bobby George. He helped to put Darts where it is now. I like to think of him up there playing Jocky Wilson with Sid Waddell and Dave Lanning commentating and also being with Jim Bowen throwing for the Bronze Bully.
RIP Eric
