I'm sorry, to hear, see, and read this. He should be, and will be missed. My condolences, to his family, and friends. R.I.P., Ben.

A fine actor who seemed to die very unexpectedly. This is proving to be a very dark year. RIP Ben Cross.

Yeah it may break the record for Hollywood actors and TV personalities. I've lost count. We've had Kirk Douglas, Ian Holm, Max Von Sydow, Brian Dennehy, John Saxon, Stuart Whitman, Robert Conrad, Olivia de Havilland, Wilford Brimley, Reni Santoni (Harry's partner in Dirty Harry), Carl Reiner, Vera Lynn, Tim Brooke-Taylor, Terry Jones, Roy Hudd, Nicholas Parsons, Ennio Morricone, Fred Willard, Jerry Stiller, Jill Gascoine, Richard Herd, Michael Angelis, Tony Scannell, Lyle Waggoner, Shirley Knight, Derek Fowlds, Jack Kehoe, Christopher Beeny, Regis Philbin, Kelly Preston, James Lipton.

 

And then music stars, Neil Peart, Little Richard, Lyle Mays, Peter Green, Bob Kulick, Brian Howe, Kenny Rogers, Steve Priest, Bill Withers, Paul "Tonka" Chapman, Pete Way, McCoy Tyner, and there's probably a lot more I forgot.

Just looking at your list makes it seem even worse! A respite for a few months would be nice!
