    RIP. Weathers did a magnificent job breathing life into and giving depth to Apollo Creed, and I’m quite sure no one could have done it better.

    Sad news about the death of Ian Lavender, the last surviving main cast member of Dad's Army. That's surely his most iconic scene.

    Wait, what about the Vicar?

    EDIT

    Although he's already been mentioned in the Bond stars who have passed thread, I'll also post it here.
    Michael Jayston has sadly passed aged 88.
    A well known actor from British tv and films, notably Nicholas and Alexandra, Dr. Who and Tinker Tailor Solider Spy.
    I always thought he had a very unique and wonderful voice.
    RIP.

    Michael Jayston I believe was considered for Bond pre-Moore. I must check out these radio plays.
