Olga da Polga creator Michael Bond has died aged 91.

At least that is how I first came across him.
Many of you will know him as the creator of Paddington.

At least his works live on.

Martin Landau has passed away... I remember him from Space: 1999 but I did not know he was in line for the character of Spock before Leonard Nimoy was offered it.

Seminal horror legend George A Romero too: https://www.theguardian.com/film/2017/jul/17/george-a-romero-obituary

I know people praise Dawn of the Dead, but I am with the man himself in believing that Day of the Dead is the best of the series, followed by Night, then Diary.

Many of you will not know this person but, if you want to hear something really special, an indigenous artist performing his own compositions in his own language .... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x8-YMpYbRqY

It is considered culturally insensitive to mention the deceased person's name (though his family has given permission for a shortened version which most media sources are respecting) so I'll just post the link and weep as I listen to his music. He was only 46 .....

Jules et Jim is sitting on my coffee table right now, waiting to be watched. This might be the kick-in-the-arse I need to actually stick it in the DVD player.

Fine actor - loved him in All Creatures, and he was good in Hot Metal too.


Never picked in this game, as far as I can see.
