Vinegar Tits 606 Posted June 26, 2010 Richard Whiteley. Five years ago today. I used to work at Yorkshire Television and on my first day I saw him in the canteen. I was a little starstruck, it must be said. Also, the lovely Françoise Dorléac perished rather horribly in a car crash (car flipped, burst into flames and she burnt to death banging on the door window for help and struggling to open the door) 43 years ago today. Her body was only identified from the fragment of a cheque book, diary and her driving licence. Probably a better actress than her sister, but we'll never really know her true potential.

Estuarian Float 97 Posted August 9, 2010 Its Bernie Mac! He's an American comedian who also has his own family sitcom where he adopts three troublemaking children from his crackhead sister who checks into rehab. He says the show is based on his own life. Im not sure about the cracksister children part though. His death might have been overshadowed by that of Isaac Hayes which came the next day. Isaac Hayes guest starred on Bernie's show, too.
