Brian Wilde (Foggy) died a couple of of weeks ago as well. The first 2-3 pilot episodes were on the other day, but weren’t a patch on the later series. Now all I see on telly when I turn it on, is some fat twats with pouting, silicone filled lips and tits in some “reality” show, making out with some shaved muscle Mary, in some jungle somewhere. load of 💩💩💩 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glasseye Posted September 24, 2021 Author Share Posted September 24, 2021 Michael K. Williams - This guy was my favorite actor/character (Chaulky White) in the brilliant HBO series - "Boardwalk Empire" Tragic.... RIP Mike https://www.cnn.com/2021/09/24/entertainment/michael-k-williams-cause-of-death/index.html (CNN)Actor Michael K. Williams died from "acute intoxication by the combined effects of fentanyl, p-fluorofentanyl, heroin and cocaine," the New York City Medical Examiner's Officer has determined. His death was deemed to be accidental in nature, a spokesperson for the office said in a statement on Friday. Williams was found dead in his New York City apartment earlier this month. In a 2017 interview with the New York Times, Williams addressed his struggles with substance abuse. "Addiction doesn't go away," he said. "It's an everyday struggle for me, but I'm fighting." Williams most recently appeared in HBO's "Lovecraft Country" and the series "F Is for Family." He rose to stardom for his nuanced and powerful performance as Omar Little in "The Wire." He also received accolades for his work on "Boardwalk Empire," "Bessie" and "The Night Of." Williams was next slated to co-star in Sony's George Foreman biopic from George Tillman Jr., who was set to direct. News of Williams' sudden death sparked an outpouring of tributes from loved ones, fans, and his friends in entertainment, including at last week's Emmy Awards. The ceremony's "In Memoriam" tribute ended with a quote from Williams: "The only way for me to say thank you is by making sure that the foundation that I am standing on is strong enough to support the next person that will stand on these two shoulders."

Always loved The Quo, the music up until the mid 80's is great, then they lost their way massively. First ever LP I bought myself was this one, got it from Woolworths in Hounslow. Guess I'll stick on an old CD in memory. RIP Alan. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stillearly Posted October 8, 2021 Share Posted October 8, 2021 😞 one of the earliest programmes I remember watching , didn't realise there were only 13 episodes... TV presenter Rick Jones, known for his work on the BBC, has died at the age of 84. Friends and fans have paid tribute to the star, who rose to fame in the 1970s after playing Yoffy on the children’s show Fingerbobs. Illustrator Garry Vaux wrote on Twitter: ‘I’m very sad to report that Rick Jones, aka Yoffy from Fingerbobs has passed away aged 84. ‘I initially interviewed him for my book many years ago and we stayed in touch. He was a huge creative spirit, a talented musician and a lover of life. I shall miss him greatly’. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Butch Posted October 9, 2021 Share Posted October 9, 2021 He was only around 35 when he made fingerbobs, possibly younger. Looks a bit older in that pic!. He also played the role of a thug in an Avengers episode. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
