Ari Up vocalist for The Slits has died at the age of 48.

 

48? Showbiz age right?? The Slits were about in the 70s. I don't remember them being anachist 12 year olds. They were good though.

Born Ariane Forster in Munich, Germany, the future punk rock goddess was only fourteen when she formed The Slits in 1976.

 

Reading and/or mathematics not your forte?

I see many of the old crew are still here, but did the lovely Amanda ever come back?

 

No.

Sadly true, but she's still around somewhere, as Facebook enthusiasts will confirm. Doesn't still have her car, sadly.

Denise Borino-Quinn, who played Johnny Sack's morbidly obese wife Ginny on The Sopranos, has died of liver cancer aged 46. I believe this makes her the first Sopranos cast member to sleep with the fishes.

I'm pretty sure that another cast member died a year or two ago.

Unfortunately I can't remember his name, so there is the real possibility that I could be speaking shite.

Not talking shite this time Windsor. John Costelloe shot himself in 2008. I'm sure there will be a post somewhere about it.

Prolific actor Frank Jarvis died back in September (15th). He appeared in just about every popular TV show from Dixon of Dock Green to Grange Hill but his "claim to film immortality" is as one of the gang of robbers in The Italian Job.

 

He was 69.

That rang a bell, so just checked back and it was reported here back in August but 2 of our members* seemed to have a bit of a fall out as to whether the info was reliable at the time.

 

* Well, one member and "Guest_iain_"
