RIP. Weathers did a magnificent job breathing life into and giving depth to Apollo Creed, and I’m quite sure no one could have done it better.

Strange... 76 feels so young these days. RIP, Carl! You were Apollo.

Thank you, it really hit hard, the past week my oldest friends mother passed which has impacted me, I am emotionally raw though it will pass.

Sad news about the death of Ian Lavender, the last surviving main cast member of Dad's Army. That's surely his most iconic scene.

Wait, what about the Vicar?

Although he's already been mentioned in the Bond stars who have passed thread, I'll also post it here.
Michael Jayston has sadly passed aged 88.
A well known actor from British tv and films, notably Nicholas and Alexandra, Dr. Who and Tinker Tailor Solider Spy.
I always thought he had a very unique and wonderful voice.
RIP.

Michael Jayston had an impressive career, I watched a few scenes of A bit of a do earlier, Michael was good in that series also along with David Jason, fun show.

Michael Jayston I believe was considered for Bond pre-Moore. I must check out these radio plays.
