    Today is the anniversary of the The Somme .
    The first day of the Battle, July 1 1916, was also the bloodiest, and remains the worst in the British Army's history.

    It was a disconcerting sound hearing those whistles after the silence this morning.... Sent a shiver down my spine. It also puts today's troubles into stark perspective.
    It was either that.....or the priesthood

    The Royale Family was a truly well written comedy, it could have you laughing
    one moment and crying the next. The episode were the granny dies was simply
    marvellous.

    RIP Michael Cimino. Forget The Deer Hunter, his greatest film was Thunderbolt and Lightfoot an undervalued masterpiece, one of Clint Eastwood's finest.

    It's all so incredibly sad the huge loss of life for absolutely no reason. There are So many people
    Filled with hatred.

    I cannot imagine how the thousands of family and friends affected by those senseless 84 deaths can be feeling - my heart is heavy at such mindless atrocity.

    A real icon of American TV has died at 81, Garry Marshall. He created such shows as Happy Days and Laverne & Shirley--starring his own sister Penny--and he pretty well put Robin Williams on the map with Mork & Mindy. He also directed some films, with the most popular probably being Pretty Woman. 2016 continues its reaping. . .

    Today it's five years since the terrorist attacks in Oslo and on Utøya. My thoughts are with the victims and their families.

    Sir Roger's daughter loses her fight with cancer.
    I'm sure all our sympathies and thoughts will be with Sir Roger and his family at this terrible time.

    So very sad to read of this TP...I met her along with Sir Roger and his wife at a signing a few years ago, very elegant and I have to say I did not think she was as old ( though clearly that is still way to young to pass on). My thoughts are with Sir Roger and his wife at this difficult time.

    Just heard that Kenny "R2D2" Baker has died aged 83.

    I was at LFCC meeting Jeremy Bulloch just 2 weeks ago and he was right next to us!

    RIP Kenny...

    RIP Kenny--yes, he was Artoo, but he got to show his face and do some real acting in Time Bandits.
