Your partner Herc?

Nah, that was Jim "Knees" Moriarty

There's a video of Brian appearing on This Is Your Life.
All the children he fostered came on to thank him for caring for them.
They were adults by then but the love was obvious.

RIP Julian Holloway.

Carry on actor.

RIP Rick Buckler of The Jam

Is he going underground?

RIP Roberta Flack. I was just playing her best of at the weekend.

"The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face" a beautifully written classic in every sense of the word

Yes, Rest In Peace Roberta

Henry Kelly, aged 78. Always game for a laugh.

Fun fact

the same person who wrote the Pirates of the Caribbean soundtrack also did the theme tune to Going for Gold

RIP Gene Hackman,
And his wife...
Yikes.

Oh dear, Rest In Peace, sir

"The French Connection" one of the best ever car chases, only just pipped by the ones in "Bullitt" and "Ronin"

RIP Gene Hackman,

Yikes.

And their dog apparently.

One of the greats, though.
Gene Hackman, not the dog.

And The Wacky Races

I was talking about adult films, not children's television - go on, now tell me you were being ironic

No I'm serious

One episode when The Ant Hill Mob just caught Penelope Pitstop right at the finishing line?

Absolutely breathtaking
