Guys, wonder if you can help me with this one. (I used your search engine first which yielded no results) British actor Cyril Appleton - according to wiki he was born 31 May 1930 and is still alive - according to IMDB he was born July 29, 1930 and died July 2, 2005. Cyril Appleton - Wikipedia Cyril Appleton - Biography - IMDb. Any help would be gratefully received.

Firstly sorry I offended - but in my defense 1- I did use the search engine first but typing in Oscar Quitak bought up a lengthy list of Academy Award winners and nominees - understandable if I had just typed his first name - not so understandable when I cut and paste his full name - 2 -I looked at wiki's "source" and I didn't think it reputable myself - added to which a google search did not bring up a single obit for him - and also no mention (that I can find) on the social media site formerly known as twitter of his death. But, as I say, sorry to duplicate effort so apologies.

According to Wiki character actor Oscar Quitak died on New Year's Eve at the age of 97.

If it w If it was anybody but Susan Penhligon who posted this I'd be looking for a obit. But she has personal (and very touching) connection with Keith in that they both adored Richard Warwick (her bestie, his ex-boyfriend). Keith Baxter | Richard Warwick actor (wordpress.com)

Pure idle curiosity on my part, but I was doing some research on 1 hit wonders The Toys. They were formed in 1961 and had the one hit "A Lovers Concerto" in 1968. What struck me is that all 3 members (according to Wiki) are still alive. I've been trying to think of other groups from earlier who could feasibly reform with their original line up. There can't be many.
