RIPs

Sad to see actor/director/writer/husband of Nannette Newman, Bryan Forbes died yesterday- the jack Hawkins film League of Gentlemen is a particular favourite of mine (he also directed the 70s Stepford Wives)

[The Doctor Alt 8]

Bloody hell.

Ray Harryhausen.

look does anybody know if there is a tribute being planned? Because it is quite disgraceful that his death has only been given a brief line in the news...

Bah, The wonderful Goerge Jones passed away last week and it never even blipped on my media, he stopped loving her last week

Yes, the League is a great film - not seen it in ages, though. Bryan was in tons of stuff, wasnt he.
One of the early Hammer Quatermass film is a particular fave, that he starred in.
RIP Mr Forbes.

Must admit that the news of Ray Harryhausen's death made me go 'Awww, no!' even though I knew he was he was 93...

Really an iconic figure, there.

Robert Ressler, the FBI guy credited with the invention of the term 'serial killer', died on the 5th of May but doesn't seem to have made the news anywhere.

The League of Gentlemens delightfully motley crew of spivs,crooks and daringly for the early 60's, homosexuals can be viewed by clicking on the link below. RIP Bryan Forbes.

i love that film,sad news at his passing.

[Definitely Not Mister Pops]

I must say, the news completely floored me. I had assumed he was already dead. In fact, for the past few years, whenever I saw CGI mess in big-budget Hollywood entertainment products, I would say 'Ray Harryhausen must be spinning in his grave'. I suppose what I am trying to say is that it's a tragedy the man's craft died before he did.

I'm pretty sure there was a false report of his death a few months back.

To paraphrase my Sickipedia entry - he's lost that living feeling.

[Adrian Bamforth]

He's gone, gone, gone... however, Shane was able to laugh at his own singing style on Shooting Stars:
