In case anyone is interested on the best way to confuse and ultimately defeat the emu.

Dame Joan Hammond was a leading female amateur golfer before taking to opera full-time. Bing Crosby's son, Nathaniel Crosby, turned pro in the early 1980s and played on the European tour. He featured on a number of his father's records. Anthony Armstrong Jones (not the ex royal husband) was a former professional golfer who became a low-level country star in the late 60s/early 70s. And Althea Gibson, the first black person to win a tennis grand slam (1955 French Open), later turned to careers in both professional golf and music after racism curtailed her time on the court. Because if you want to avoid racism, you go to a golf course.

Back to completely dead casts, 1959's The World, The Flesh and The Devil will be a total all-people-on-screen wipeout when Harry Belafonte goes.

Death of Brian Murray brings this list down to 5.

Brian Murray (IBDB) (IMDB), veteran South African broadway actor, has died aged 80. Besides broadway, he also appeared in TV shows and films including The Angry Silence, League of Gentlemen and Disney's Treasure Planet.

Any way to ignore a thread? Asking for a friend. Ok, asking for me.

I went browsing last night and found this article on George from this year's Record Store Day

Lovely.

Ri Kun-mo, Premier of North Korea between 1986 and 1988, died in 2001 according to NK expert Alexandre Mansourov. Plus an anonymous IP continued to add 2012 as his Wiki date of death. There is no reason to doubt he is dead.

According to this, Don Cherry died on April 4th, 2018 aged 94: https://www.facebook.com/permalink.php?story_fbid=2174998692729514&id=1530062100556513 UK #6 (1956) Band Of Gold Not the DDP pick. But perhaps a Su Wukong one.

Just finished watching Is Paris Burning? and oh boy, was it a slog. It really didn't need to be 175 minutes long. War films from that time are fairly undramatic but I like that because it seems more realistic, almost as though the characters are numb to the conflict (the film took place years after WWII began). I recognised my 3 picks so it was all worth it, ha!

Bet he didn't expect the old girl to outlive him.

Unfortunately Jack Nicholson is an ineligible pick as late entries must all be unique actors

Derby Cathedral are having the finger wagged at them for planning to screen The Wicker Man. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-derbyshire-45245229

Nothing but respect for all those obituary writers who have so far ignored a Nobel prize winner, the oldest living baseball player and a man every newspaper wrote about last December, so I can do my update at the weekend instead.

Ok comments noted, at least it stirred up a bit of interest non brits allowed.
