Ronnie Corbett, the remaining half of comedy duo The Two Ronnies. He lived locally, and I saw him several times while out and about: the last time he didn't look particularly well, so this has been on the cards for a while.

R.I.P. Bud Spencer of Terrence Hill & Bud Spencer fame. I was a fan of their movies in my teens. Another childhood hero gone
My teen years are long gone, but their movies still hold a revered cult status with me and my friends, and we still know most of their dialogs by heart.
Buddy, thanks for all the Entertainment and the laughs. Now you can give the angels in heaven a real good whacking...
Rest in Peace.
