Some unreliable sources suggest he died in 2007, others say 2017. Got a private message No 2007, no 2017, he died in 2018 according to him but I don't have a concrete source for a moment! Also I learned from him that actors Andrea Scotti (Wiki) and Irene Cefaro (Wiki) are dead too!

Supposedly died on 28th September 2017 (aged 100). Unsourced but probably true. Japanese article from November 2017 that refers Jiro Tanaka as the "recently deceased". So yes, he died indeed die 6 years ago. Now, can anyone solve the other one? WWII flying ace Makoto Ogawa (wiki, b. 1917). He was also born in 1917. Definitely living circa 2001. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Imhotep 9 Posted September 14, 2023 Does anyone know whether the author and screenwriter James Gordon White is still alive? He was active in the field of exploitation films with titles like The Glory Stompers, The Mini-Skirt Mob and The Devil's 8 between 1967 and 2004. His final publication may have been the western novel Barbary Coast Gundown in 2006. I cannot find any dates/place of either birth or death. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This is his wife, and based on public records, he was born on February 2, 1940, so he'd only be 83 now. (I looked him up when he was mentioned on here previously a few months ago. And hey, searching suggests that was also you, so here you go.) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

However, the reason people on the internet have trying to discover him for years is because he was the model on the cover Championship Manager 93. I always wondered who that was! Loved that game.

Spade_Cooley 9,023 Posted October 5, 2023 Not 100% off the radar but I only just found out that Peter Corey died in 2019. His "Coping With..." series of books was absolutely massive among children around the turn of the 90s, always a popular choice when the book fair rolled into school. There were even several BAFTA-winning TV series based around them. But his death was apparently only reported by local press in Thanet, and even then they focussed more on the fact he ran the local pub quiz. Bizarre. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tracy 1,878 Posted November 29, 2023 On 20/09/2023 at 03:47, pbert said: 1940's Hollywood child actor Charles Bates has died in May 2022 at the age of 87, according to his Wikipedia page (which uses a memorial site as the source). He was best-known for appearing in Alfred Hitchcock's Shadow of a Doubt, 1943 (which leaves Edna May Wonacott the last surviving cast member of one of my favorite Hitchcock films). This guy is probably still alive, actually. It seems that whoever added January 1935 as his DOB to IMDb probably just picked a similar-seeming "Bates" who was about the right age from the California birth index, and the editor who wrote his Wiki page copied it, but the problem is that "Charles Bates" was a stage name (which his article notes already). Here is the right birth record: Name Charles Edward Perry Sex male Birthdate 10/22/1934 Birthplace Los Angeles County, California Mother's Maiden Name Bates Based on public records, he lives in the Spokane area in Washington. So while the guy IMDb was claiming to the actor is indeed dead, the actual man himself isn't. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
