Finally today, we have a couple of deaths to report unfortunately...
First, veteran British actor Nigel Terry has died at the age of 69. You’ll know him from such films as The Lion in Winter, Caravaggio, and Excalibur (where he played King Arthur). You can read more here via The Guardian.
Also, actress Grace Lee Whitney has died. Whitney is most famous for playing Yeoman Janice Rand on Star Trek, both the original 60s TV series and also several of the feature films. She was 85. More here at The L.A. Times.
Both will be missed.
