Bob Einstein died today. He was 76.

He was probably best known to modern audiences for playing Marty Funkhouser, a friend of Larry David on HBO's "Curb Your Enthusiasm" although he also created the character of Super Dave Osborne, a fearless but accident-prone daredevil who made appearances on "Smothers Brothers" and other comedy-variety shows starting in the late 1960s.

June Whitfield aged 93. I have some sort of vague memory, as a child, of hearing her on a radio programme my parents listened to.

Could be News Huddlines?

I'm saving that for when they're in power.
:D

Please, please, please don't let that ever happen!

I have a red flag secreted in the cellar, but I wouldn't let JC near it. Saving it to ram up Rees-Mogg's arse.

I have a red flag secreted in the cellar,

Is that a euphemism?

It's beside my broomstick. Laughing out loud

Albert Finney has died at the age of 82.

Not a lot of people know this but he turned down the title role in "Lawrence of Arabia".

He also turned down a knighthood.

Very sad news. I only know of a fraction of his work but he was a fine actor and seemed like a very nice man.
