Phil-McRackin This article from 2019 paints a pretty bleak picture and can’t imagine he was any better off financially now https://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2019/apr/29/tony-slattery-had-very-happy-time-went-slightly-barmy?CMP=share_btn_tw
Along_the_Wire alistair I guess so, but do what everyone else does and pay for it yourself - you can get one for a bag of sand. Crowdfunding is just crude.
Along_the_Wire Fuck me, they’re coming in thick and fast - David Lynch, what a ledge. RIP I wonder if this has anything to do with the WFA situation.
Henry What a loss. Had been hanging on for one more film. He bows out with Inland Empire. To be fair, he probably couldn’t make anything madder than that. RIP

hugopal Gutted. It’s a shame we’ll never get anything more from him. The third season of Twin Peaks was magnificent though; far better than anticipated given how long it appeared after the first one and the stage of Lynch’s career. At least the end to his legacy was a worthy one.
hugopal C_J Taken tragically too young ScottBailey Was apparently hospitalised because of vaping, and caught pneumonia whilst in there. Not sure if that’s what killed him, but I guess his lungs were fucked. SM001 I reckon it was the lifetime of smoking cigarettes, drug abuse and recent bout of pneumonia that killed him rather then a couple of years of vaping. “He was due to appear at Warrington Magistrates Court on the morning that news of his death was announced, charged with driving a vehicle while unfit through drugs as well as possession of cocaine. He was to enter a plea at the hearing.” Given the timing of the above my guess would be he took himself.. and/or overdosed. https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025/jan/16/former-hollyoaks-star-paul-danan-dies-aged-46
ScottBailey RIP John Sykes. Absolute ripsnorter of a guitarist who never really got the adulation he deserved.
