Okay, so I've never heard of him, but it's an entertaining obituary. Richard Arthur de Yarburgh-Bateson, 6th. Lord Deramore has died at the age of 95. As well as being a peer of the realm he was a racing driver, record-breaking cyclist, amateur watercolourist, architect and fougt in the RAF. Oh, and his first erotic novel was published when he was 85.

Tiffany Rayne

 

Can't say I've ever heard of this young lady, an actress who has apparently committed suicide at the tender age of 21. However, I am sure dedicatees of serious cinema amongst you may be familiar with her oeuvre.

 

Maybe she was upset that she didn't get the part she'd auditioned for in the up and coming film of Jane Austen's "Northanger Abbey"

I just looked at the list of films she did.Not exactly the sort of stuff Mary Whitehouse would appreciate are they ... :banghead:

There's a very bored person out there today.

 

On Wikipedia this morning, you'll see the following

 

Margaret Thatcher, 80, [[united Kingdom|British] politician, former Prime Minister of the United Kingdom. Suicide
:banghead::D

 

I can well believe that a porn actress would commit suicide as I believe that a large number of the female cast of Debbie Does Dallas ended their lives in that way, mostly by an overdose.

 

oh my giddy aunt your not suggesting Maggie Thatcher has done porn movies are you? :)

 

by the way IMDB are still saying Tiffany Rayne killed herself and theyre usually reliable

Running the risk of being accused of placing the names of obscure nobodies on this thread, I can report the death of the Pakistani Test cricketer Wasim Raja, at the age of only 54. 57 Tests and an English education mean he'll definitely get a UK obit. Aggressive and exciting player in his day, too. Shame.

 

Not a good week for cricketers, as former opener for India, Vijay Mehra has died of a heart attack at the age of 68

Iain, you asswipe, Tiffany Rayne doesn't have an imdb page.

 

Besides, above, you have admitted for the first time, Wikipedia may be wrong! :banghead:

 

So, once again, killing off someone who isn't dead. Let's hope that supension keeps on trucking.
