The Dead Thread

[tommytowne]

RIP Jeremy Kemp, The Blue Max is a top film, one of the best WW1 movies IMO, great actor, was also in Colditz

Jeremy Kemp obituary

One of the original cast of Z Cars who was a stalwart of British cinema and TV, often playing army officers and authority figures

Z Cars unmissable for me. Kemp, Brian Blessed, James Ellis etc. The theme became popular which led my school teacher getting us to sing Johnny Todd. She must have been a Blue.

Paula Williamson, who appeared in Coronation Street and Emmerdale, wed Charles Bronson in November 2017 has died aged 38. No news of the cause of death but marrying a person who has been in prison for 40 odd years doesn't scream of a sound mind.

RIP.

Very good, although I feel bad for giving that a like under the circumstances.

Malcolm Nash. Famous for being smashed by Gary Sobers. RIP.

Listened to him talking in a cricket evening with Joel Garner and David Gower only last October. Very captivating and humble quietly spoken sounding speaker . What was less well known about him is that he himself hit 5 ( or 6 ? damn my memory) sixes in an over in a match.

RIP

I used to love playing cricket when I was younger and whilst on one hand it must have been good to be part of cricket history, pride would have me squirming that I had 6x6 hit off my bowling, but hey Sobers was an exceptional player.
