Dame Diana Rigg, aged 82 

Diana Rigg as Emma Peel. the ultimate 1960s fantasy girl.

Beautiful & intelligent, she could scrap a bit as well.

R.I.P Diana Rigg

Alan Minter, former British World middleweight champion.

Famous for his quote "I do not intend to lose my Title to a black man" before being battered by Marvin Hagler.

Sibbo did him as well.

Spooky ! I looked him up on wiki 2 days before as we’d been having a discussion about boxing . Unlucky to meet Marvellous Marvin at his absolute peak . Excellent boxer .

For those into wrestling back in the day, Road Warrior animal has died. probably the first icon I had as a kid! 

Easily my favourite tag team back in the day.

 

Off now to re-join Hawk.

 

RIP Animal

Sad to hear about Johnny Nash.  

'Tears on my Pillow' takes me back to the hot summer of 75, dancing in the incongruous surrounds of the Turtle Wax warehouse just outside Manchester with a pretty student nurse while it was playing on the radio during our dinner break. 

All that and nine quid a week!

Saw an old episode of The Avengers today featuring Dame Diana's replacement,  Linda Thorson (and, for good measure,  the wonderful Christopher Lee).

Not Ms Thorson's fault of course,  but man, what were they thinking? 

For anyone growing up in the 60s, Diana Rigg set the standard of female cool - sexy, intelligent, hyper-stylish and funny. And always with a warmth (that seems pretty rare these days) informing her work. 

The world's the poorer for her passing.
