GLENN FORD, 90

Smitty gets the point for informing us that Glenn Ford is dead. Though he was watching JJ when he caught the news, so perhaps it's a half-point to each.

Best bit to know about Ford, courtesy of the BBC:
An action man both on and off screen, he later took up hang-gliding at the age of 64 and got married for the fourth time at 76.
There is hope for all of us yet.

To disagree with you, I do not enjoy, however the best bit for my money this is:

"A marine who trained the French Resistance in World War II, he was captured by the Nazis but escaped."

Fight the Dark Side he did!
Shoot a six gun he could.
Balls that clank he had.
