DDP pick Agnes Nixon, who created All My Children and One Life To Live, dead aged 88. http://www.philly.com/philly/blogs/entertainment/celebrities_gossip/Agnes-Nixon-85-creator-of-All-My-Children.html

 

Qualifying Obit awaited.

Actually she was 93. She probably lied about her real age.

A stroke and now living in an Retired Entertainers Home. I'd prefer to think cake is what happened...

Completely misread that as Derrick. Though David has a bigger claim to fame with If... and I might be one of the few fans of Britannia Hospital.

Andy Lewis, screenwriter most notably associated with, and nominated for an Oscar for, co-writing the screenplay for Klute, has died aged 92. http://www.legacy.com/obituaries/wickedlocal-concord/obituary.aspx?n=andrew-k-lewis&pid=188433937

 

IMDB: http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0506920/?ref_=ttfc_fc_wr36

 

I find this quite interesting that this comes to light today, as OldWillz was watching an episode of The Avengers today with Donald Sutherland in it, and it brought to mind that Klute was the first movie I ever saw with Sutherland in it. And I didn't like it much...
