Paul Bearer 6,116 Posted July 10, 2015 Scottish people might know this guy more than I do but Archie McPherson has died http://www.scotsman.com/news/obituaries/obituary-archibald-cameron-macpherson-fsa-solicitor-lecturer-and-gaelic-enthusiast-1-3822179 Ah the typical Guest "here's someone with a name like a more famous person" post. They never get old. Another reason to ban guest posts. Sorry guests, some of you post genuine 'departures', but you always get the occasional fuckwit that should know better.

Toast 16,155 Posted July 11, 2015 Isn't "Hollywood Possibilities" supposed to be for discussing people who might die soon, not people who have actually died. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
charon 4,943 Posted July 11, 2015 Isn't "Hollywood Possibilities" supposed to be for discussing people who might die soon, not people who have actually died. It was, but as Mae West said, it 'drifted'. Rees was more of a stage actor anyroads, was in a handful of cheers episodes, so I reckon this is the right thread. ^^^ tuppenceworth. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
