  British actress Glynis Johns, famous for having played the suffragette mother in Mary Poppins, has passed away, aged 100. She was one of the first actresses I saw in a movie theater, given that Mary Poppins was the first movie I saw in a theater.

  RIP David Soul. Starsky & Hutch used to air here on TCM Latin America about a year ago. Now it's gone, unfortunately. Listening to Don't Give Up on Us right now.

  He was not British, but German. And not an actor. But one of the greatest footballer ever: Franz Beckenbauer died at the age of 78. RIP.
  
  I would place him up there with Sir Bobby Charlton, Pelé, Maradona and Johann Cruijf.

  New Yorkers of a certain age, also remember Beckenbauer coming to the US in 1977 to play for the Cosmos along side Pele.

  Peter Crombie who played 'Crazy' Joe Davola on Seinfeld sadly passed away on the 10th of January.
  He played a small but very memorable role of Joe Davola in several episodes of the popular comedy show.
  RIP

  Telly Savalas remembered tonight on NPR's The Big Broadcast and its Sunday showcase of the Golden Age of Radio, music and drama from the 30s, 40s, 50s. (WAMU for me.)
  
  Host Murray Horwitz appeared with him on an episode of Kojak, and played portions of an interview he did with Telly, reflecting on fame and the show.
