Dan Steele Posted September 25, 2021 Share Posted September 25, 2021 (edited) Pee Wee Ellis, great saxophone player, died Friday. Played on many Van Morrison songs. Guess he's now on the dark side of the road. Edited September 27, 2021 by The Skelpit Lug 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miguel Sanchez Posted September 26, 2021 Author Share Posted September 26, 2021 Week 39 update One death this week, the actor Robert Fyfe: Robert Fyfe obituary | Television | The Guardian Quote Robert Fyfe, who has died of kidney disease aged 90, was an actor who found fame in middle age as Howard Sibshaw, the henpecked husband furtively stealing away from his wife, Pearl, to enjoy bike rides with the flighty Marina, in the long-running BBC TV series Last of the Summer Wine. Their sojourns provided viewers with panoramic views of the beautiful Yorkshire countryside. The characters also brought another layer of humour to the long-running sitcom, created by Roy Clarke, alongside the antics of three childlike old men led by Peter Sallis’s retired lino seller Clegg. Robert was born in Kirkcaldy, Fife, to Mary (nee Irvine) and Douglas Fyfe, a watchmaker. Classical music and opera were loves of his as a child, when he thrilled at the voices of Kathleen Ferrier and Isobel Baillie on visits to the town. He also had a love of acting that flourished at Kirkcaldy high school in plays such as Emlyn Williams’s A Murder Has Been Arranged (1948), when one local newspaper critic commented on his role as the murderer: “He seemed to me to live the part, which I think is the sign of the true artiste. He had the audience in stitches with his gestures and expressions.” Although he began a degree in English literature at Edinburgh university, Fyfe abandoned it when he had the chance to train at Esme Church’s Northern Theatre School, in Bradford, graduating in 1954. He then toured with her Northern Children’s Theatre before stints with repertory companies, including three years at the Castle theatre, Farnham (1957-60). As ever with an actor, I have a look to see what they've been in. The only thing I've seen is The 51st State, but I'm more alarmed at the fact that Last of the Summer Wine lasted 25 years and 295 episodes. A different time you could say, if it hadn't lasted into 2010. Fyfe died at 90 so he's worth 35 Base Points. He was a Solo Shot for @Savage Henry for a bonus of 50 and a total of 85 points.

Aim Here Posted September 30, 2021 Share Posted September 30, 2021 Natabay Tinsiew, from Eritrea, has allegedly died at the age of 127, and even got a writeup in the Daily Mail. The age is unverified and the Guinness Book of Records aren't giving him an entry (yet), but if the reported age is right, this guy would have scored negative points, in the absence of bonuses. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
