july stiffs.

Another month, another member of the Are You Being Served cast dead and no doubt another round of death threats from Mr. 'Evil Dead' for mentioning it.

Sad bastard.

Yup, the gorgeously bewigged and pussytastic Mrs. Slocombe herself, Mollie Sugden died last month as did the wallet stealing, pug nosed star of Argento's Cat O' Nine Tails Karl Malden.

Wendy Richard and Mollie Sudgen:
Fuck you and your death threats!

Malden: caller.

Behind the camera we lost the creator of Bless This House, Love Thy Neighbour and Mind Your Language (amongst other stuff), comedy writing God Vince Powell, animator and inspiration for Takashi Murakami's Superflat art movement, Yoshinori (Galaxy Express 999) Kanada and John Gerald Christopher Ryan, British animator and cartoonist, best known for creating Captain Pugwash.

"You killed mah son!"


(drawing) boards of Kanada.

Pugwash.

We also said goodbye to lead singer with the Dolly Dots, Maria Petronella 'Ria' Brieffies, big underpanted Doctor Who guest star Harry Towb and, most sadly, the 'sweater/escalator' zombie from Romero's Dawn of The Dead Clayton Hill.

Ria: gone kid.


Towb: massive pants.

More next month.
