Octopus of Odstock 2,206 Posted July 21, 2012 Debated whether to put this in "The Welsh" or "British Character Actors" or "some other crap" but to keep it simple - Angharad Rees is dead. http://www.belfasttelegraph.co.uk/news/local-national/uk/welsh-actress-angharad-rees-dies-16188064.html Reading the article reminds me of how badly she and her family have suffered tragedy wise, which is probably why she kept her cancer secret.

WOW! I had wondered where she'd disappeared to. They showed a clip of "Hands of The Ripper" on some crap documentary that I was watching on Jack The Ripper. It was so crap, that I fell asleep wondering "whatever happened to Angharad Rees?" then when I woke up, I completely forgot about her. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Phantom 2,536 Posted July 22, 2012 Simon Ward, the actor, has dies following a long illness I had no idea he was ill. Such a shame, he's been in a fair number of movies and tv shows and the only thing I've ever watched him in was Deadly Strangers with Haley Mills. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

adrian0719 224 Posted July 27, 2012 The vice president of PR for bigoted corporation Chick-Fil-A has suddenly dropped dead of a heart attack. That in itself can't be good PR for a fast food company. We can only hope Chick-Fil-A as a whole is the next death. http://ww2.ajcmobile.com/autojuice/?targetUrl=http://www.ajc.com/business/chick-fil-a-public-1486023.html Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Magere Hein 1,400 Posted August 2, 2012 John Keegan, the oft quoted military historian/author. http://en.wikipedia....iki/John_Keegan I read his The First World War. Not quite bedside reading, yet I read it with great interest. WWI isn't the Great War in my country (WWII is), we were neutral then, and consequently no general history is written in Dutch about it. regards, Hein Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
