Just heard the news its sad yes but, as David says he lived a life & got to a great age. A multitude of films & his name is so iconic & well known, that wont pass so easily ! He can sit back & have a laugh with Peter Cushing about us "silly mortals" down here

Just saw this thread after posting in the one in The Hobbit forum. Agreed about Lee having such a full life. I keep discovering new things about him. His massive acting career, his heavy metal albums, his WWII special forces service, and so on. A pretty amazing life, not just a really long one.

RIP Sir Lee
If you haven't checked it out, he also narrated an Audiobook of The Children of Hurin, his powerful voice is used to full effect.

Just saw that Ron Moody has 'gone' also ! I liked him, His Fagin was the best Ive seen. He also got to a great age, which is good. I bet both He & Christopher Lee could tell a tale or 3

If I 'go' before Peejers, Id like to send a plague of hungry red ants & half starved fleas to follow peejers, & ONLY peejers everywhere he goes, day & night, without remorse or shame. I hope they bite his arse raw ! And dont think jumping in a bath will save you ! I want those Bugs waterproof !

RIP Christopher Lee
He had a full life and a great career, however. A life that should be celebrated. He was the perfect Saruman.

He leaves as big a void as Kate Hepburn. Both could take any character, any dialogue, and pull out matchless life and gravitas.

Omar Sharif!
I don't even have anything to say, except that he was great.

I was on NPR looking for the podcast of this storytelling organisation and I saw that Roger Rees has died!
I just didn't think of him as being that old! He was 71, but still.
Rest In Peace

Yes saw that on the news- not that old either, 72.
Another icon of the 60's gone.
Also Rowdy Roddy Piper, only 61- probably known to most as a WWF Wrestler (and yes it was WWF back then!!) but who will always be best known to me for starring in John Carpenters excellent They Live, and where he improvised the wonderful line "I have come here to chew bubble gum and kick ass....and I'm all out of bubblegum."
