I know, read that this morning, what a terrible twofer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freddie2 Posted June 11, 2015 Report Share Posted June 11, 2015 I saw the news about Christopher Lee right after it broke. I went to IMDb and saw that Ron Moody had died, so part of me thought maybe someone had gotten the names mixed up because I've always assumed Sir Christopher was immortal. When it hit me that they both were gone I just felt sick. Next to Donna Douglas, Lee is probably the saddest death this year for me. Of all the Twitter obituaries I saw, the one that struck me the most was a reference to his work in The Wicker Man, which becomes very poignant if you've seen the movie: "And on Christopher's grave will grow a tree."

Freddie2 Posted June 11, 2015 Report Share Posted June 11, 2015 Tim seemed overwhelmed just to be a presenter. And wow- that speech! He could read anything and it would sound regal and powerful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C L A U D E Posted June 11, 2015 Report Share Posted June 11, 2015 Didn't he some kind of Lucy connection? As for Mr Moody, he was in Oliver, brilliantly choreographed by the great Oona White who helped guide Lucy after her broken leg for Mame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
