George Layton with David Graham who suffered a stroke earlier this year but is back doing voice over work from home

Was just thinking about David Graham today. I'm surprised he's still alive to be honest. 98 next July but I doubt he'll make it that far after his stroke. As a legend, and the last notable voice actor of the Gerry & Sylvia Anderson productions, can we have him on DL next year?

It's probably down to his notoriously good health before that stroke that he's survived so long, but yeah, DL name in 2023 for sure imo.

Inspired by @Grimgrass here's a list of all the Pixar movie actors to have died in the past 5 years.

 

Don Rickles (Mr. Potato Head, Toy Story 1-4) (2017)

John Cygan (Various, Cars-Inside Out) (2017)

R. Lee Ermey (Sarge, Toy Stoy 1-3) (2018)

Bud Lucky (Rick Dicker/Chuckles, The Incredibles/Toy Story 3) (2018)

Katherine Helmond (Lizzie, Cars 1-3) (2019)

Junior Johnson (Himself as a car, Cars 3) (2019)

Ian Holm (Skinner, Ratatouille) (2020)

Brian Dennehy (Django, Ratatouille) (2020)

David Lander (Thumper, A Bug's Life) (2020)

Carl Reiner (Himself as a toy, Toy Story 4) (2020)

Fred Willard (Shelby, Wall-E) (2020)

Jack Angel (Various, Toy Story-Monsters Uni) (2021)

Ned Beatty (Lotso, Toy Story 3) (2021)

Sally Kellerman (Mabel, Ratatouille) (2022)*

Estelle Harris (Mrs. Potato Head, Toy Story 2-4) (2022)

Mickie McGowan (Various, Toy Story-Inside Out) (2022)

Jan Rabson (Various, Toy Story-Inside Out) (2022)
Robbie Coltrane (Dingwall, Brave) (2022)

 

As Grimgrass originally said quite a surprising amount from the toy story franchise and coincidentally both leads of Up dead within months of each other and both the same age too (91).  

 

*She is credited in some places but not others so I can't be sure if she actually voiced the character
