RIP Charlton Heston

Star of 'Planet of the Apes', 'Soylent Green', 'The Omega Man' and 'Ben Hur'. I didn't always agree with his views, however he was a superb actor and 'soylent Green' is one of the finest sci-fi films ever made.

I noticed the deaths stopped after Dalek... have there been any since, CH notwithstanding?

Johnny Byrne has died just recently and Peter Tuddenham died sometime last year.

(Or are we talking a more specific brand of death?)

Wait... when did David Maloney die? Was that last year as well?

I mean, the thing of celebrities dying the same day as a Doctor Who episode being shown. In 2005, they were dropping like flies...
