    I read her obituary, and while it mentions her work in "The Omen" (very scary) and "The Krays", it didn't mention one role that I particularly liked: the voice of Aughra in "Dark Crystal". Fine actress.
    When I was putting together today's "Today in History" post, I noticed that today is the anniversary of the passing of playwright Samuel Beckett, who wrote many works specifically for her. You can't make this stuff up.

    :(

    I'll always like his version of "With a little help from my friends" best, even if it's in part due to Wonder Years nostalgia. He really knew how to cover a song and make it his own with that soulful gravelly voice of his. Lots of great original works as well.

    Great original works? Well, songs written for him, or songs you didn't realise we're covers. ;)

    The only film of her's that I've seen is the 1987 The Secret Garden telefilm from Hallmark.

    lol, I never knew how much of a Tom Jones he really was. I just read up on his discography.

    I take it all back. I hope that son of a bitch rots in hell! [face_plain]

    Christine Cavanaugh, who voiced Chucky on Rugrats and Dexter from Dexter's Laboratory, has perished.

    The world is a lesser place this evening.

    Edit - also voiced Babe the pig. BAH RAM EWE

    That is very sad news. "Dexter's Laboratory" is one of my favorite shows, and she did a great job as Dexter.

    Babe. Chuckie. Dexter. Gosalyn. Oblina. She pretty much encompassed the 90s golden era of television.

    RIP. @};-

    Alright we have a winner!

    HL&S is the winner with 24 points! He correctly predicted the deaths of James Garner and Richard Attenborough. Fitting, as he hosted this game for a while. He'll win a week of colors, which I just arbitrarily came up with, and will win the knowledge that he is the most horrible out of all the rest of us horrible people.

    There is a three way tie for 2nd place between Miana Kenobi Coruscant and Hello_Fett with 15 points apiece. Miana and Fett had Shirley Temple and Coruscant had Ariel Sharon.

    Poor Mickey Rooney, forgotten already.

    Oh, we're not playing by HL&S's convoluted points scoring rules. :(
