    Football legend Denis Law.

    Never heard of this guy and sky news is wall to wall with him.

    Doesn’t mean he’s not a legend @Bones, you should try and watch more sport.

    ( yeah, I’ve never heard of him either )

    @Bones He was Sky's main football pundit in the early 1990s. Only Scot to win the Ballon D'Or. Part of Manchester United's Holy Trinity in the 1960s alongside George Best and Bobby Charlton.

    Most importantly perhaps he set up the Denis Law Trust that offers free sporting activities to youngsters and tries to keep them out of trouble: https://www.denislawlegacytrust.org/denis-law-legacy-trust

    Probably the most likeable and intelligent British footballer. A legend.

    That's a name for the casting couch.

    David Lynch, Twin Peaks and Mulholland Drive director, dies aged 78

    Film-maker who specialised in surreal, noir style mysteries made a string of influential, critically acclaimed works including Wild at Heart and Eraserhead

    😞

    In my dreams I walk with you..........

    RIP

    This one hit me hard.

    Mulholland Drive is on my Mount Rushmore.

    Mullholland Drive is on my opposite of Mount Rushmore. But I love Twin Peaks, The Elephant Man, and Blue Velvet.

    His filmography is much smaller than I would have thought.

    I have a mate who did his PhD on Twin Peaks, he'll be devastated, I'll leave it until tomorrow to see how he is.

    RIP

    @sparky He also famously refused to watch the 1966 World Cup Final on TV and instead went and played a round of golf by himself on a deserted golf course. He said his heart sank when he heard the roar from the clubhouse as he knew the bloody Poms must've won 🙂

    Marianne Faithfull. She did to Mars Bars what Sharon Stone did to bar stools & short skirts

    It was on that bit of the tape which was blurry from your constant rewinding of it.

    Could be. That bit on the tape you gave me was totally worn out - just static mostly.
