Yeah, that's rough. It also maybe makes it difficult to know if he died by suicide; if someone is that fucked up I can imagine them falling off a balcony by accident.
Either way it's terrible, though.

Yup, quite horrible. Apparently reported so swiftly his family would've found out along with the rest of the world.

RIP. His British record in shot put, set in 1980, still stands! |

Whoever you were claiming had died appears to have had a Lazarus moment and deleted the tweet |

I've somehow only just now learned of John Cassaday's death at the beginning of September. One of the best comic artists of all time. His work on Planetary and Astonishing X-Men, among others was incredible. He was only 52.

Ah that's a damn shame - I only got round to reading Planetary this week and the artwork was the standout feature.

Janey Godley, the Scottish comedian who among other things did this  Fuck cancer www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cvgxp3x1zx3oWhen the original sign got her in trouble she made a new one that said “runt” but deliberately covered the foot of the r so it still read like the original on camera |

I didn't realise Todd was Venom in Spider-Man 2 (The Guardian article incorrectly said he was Venom in the film rather than the game). I recently have been watching Star Trek TNG and really enjoyed his performance as Kurn, Worf's brother, on the few occasions he pops up.
That one actually was no age.

I had a look at his IMDb quite recently to see if he had voiced something (he hadn’t) and he’s got like 250 acting credits. That guy *worked*.

You can't expect a lowly paid early 20s journalist to be that thorough. |

Timothy West has passed away aged 90 www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cwy9vw893xvoHe’s one of those actors who feels like he’s been in literally everything at some point. Surely one of those most familiar character actors we’ve had and good in everything too. Working until the end too, his final acting appearance is in an episode of Doctors which was broadcast today. As an aside, I don’t think I knew that Prunella Scales had dementia so reading that she survives as his widow but with this makes me want to add fuck dementia to our other regular fuck illness. |
