    Wow, what a shock. My thoughts are with her family, especially Pierce who was kind enough to adopt her and her brother Christopher with open arms way back when he married Cassandra.

    What a depressing few weeks this has been, in which pain and suffering couldn't have come to kinder families and friends. RIP to all.

    Yes, he is in my thoughts. It couldn't have happened to a nicer guy, again! :(

    Yes, very sad news. I hope she is now at peace. Such a young woman, too. Thoughts and prayers are with both families.

    This is no doubt a very tough time for all involved. RIP Charlotte. Cancer strikes again and it will never stop.

    Yes, they seem to be a long way from finding a cure for it - heard that they are not as far ahead as they want to be on the news just today.

    It is with great sadness that I report that the famous photographer Bert Stern has died at age 83.

    http://www.nydailynews.com/life-style/fashion/photographer-bert-stern-dead-83-article-1.1385022

    This is especially personal for me because his photos of Marilyn Monroe that form "The Lasting Sitting" taken just months before her death in August 1962 have enchanted me as the woman herself long has. They are some of the most intimate and gorgeous pictures ever taken, and I envy the man for doing what I have long dreamed of: meeting Marilyn Monroe. He captured everything I love so much about her with just a camera and a limited frame: her allure, her mystery, her complexity, her sexual appeal, her grace, her playfulness and even her sadness. RIP to a man who lived one hell of a life and gave us some of the greatest pieces of photography the world will ever know. @};-

    Wasn't aware James Kelly was deceased. RIP

    July 7th we will see the anniversary of the passing of Vivien Leigh (Gone with the Wind) etc, who died on that day in 1967 and Arthur Conan Doyle (Sherlock Holmes) who we lost in 1930

    It was also the day of the terrorist attacks in London that saw 56 people lose their lives with hundreds of injured. A sad day to recall for many but still highly significant, so RIP to all involved

    Alan Whicker has died at the age of 87 from bronchial pneumonia.

    Bond fans will know him from his 1967 set visit of You Only Live Twice on Whicker's World - a programme he did for 29 years.

    Sad news indeed. I liked Alan Whicker. He claimed that a letter Ian Fleming had sent him declining a BBC interview in 1964 was the rudest that he had ever received. Fleming was of course far from well at the time he wrote it. He mentions this all in his book Whicker's World.

    I saw in The Times today that the acting chimp from the Brooke Bond tea TV adverts has died aged 37. He played Bond in a white tuxedo around the time of FYEO. Kind of worth mentioning, though only just.

    That is a shame. I loved that chimp!

    A tentative link at best to 007, but sad to see british icon, broadcaster Alan Whicker has passed on.
    His documentary on the making of YOLT in 1966 was incisive and entertaining in its day, and even more so today.

    Yes, someone once wrote (I think it was Adrian Turner in his book on Goldfinger) that with his jet-setting he was in many ways the real James Bond. I myself can think of no greater tribute to this great man.

    RIP, Cory. Such a waste. I started to watch 'Glee' compliments of my girlfriend and he seemed like such a sweet guy. Can't imagine what Lea Michelle is going through.

    Oh no. I know of Smith from repeats of Smith & Jones as well as Not The Nine O'clock News. And then there was that episode of Hustle, where Smith was a right SOB.

    RIP

    Stunned at this very sad news! Loved watching "Not the nine o'clock news" and "Alas Smith and Jones". Hope the BBC do an appropriate tribute to him. RIP Mel.

    Dennis Farina has passed away.

    Very upsetting news! I loved him in the few things I've seen him in.

    That is sad news. Always enjoyed him in whatever he was in. Very good and likable actor. He will be sadly missed. RIP

    And it doesn't stop here : French director Denys de la Patellière died last week, aged 92. "Un Taxi pour Tobrouk" is still a classic war movie.

    And I loved Dennis Farina. My second favourite L&O cop, right after Jerry Orbach.
