    Ian Holm, i.e. Bilbo Baggins to me, has died at 88.

    Also starred in Alien and Chariots of Fire, had a great career.

    Terrible news about Grant firstly, his work with Star Wars and other movie robotics was amazing as well as his MythBusters work.

    I can't tell if Glee had a heap of actors/actresses, I've never watched the thing, or if it really is cursed. It's death rate is way too high given its average age of star.

    I'm not sure either but it probably has something to do with it being a phenomenally annoying musical and on for so many years

    with that many people wishing death on upon you weekly, eventually one of them is going to be granted

    Rest in peace, Ghislaine Maxwell.

    You were born into high privilege. You had immense opportunities but failed to contribute to the world in a positive way. You may actually be evil, but that's for a judge to decide, not me.

    It always annoyed me that so many people mispronounced your name.

    Peter Green....Fleetwood Mac.

    An excellent round of videos from his benefit concert a few weeks ago if you look. Some real heavyweights contributed.
