Still haven't seen that movie, but saw this other excellent clip from it today. Very sad mini fop finds this kind of humour "stupid" rather than "brilliantly daft and ingenious"

A good time for a reminder that everyone should watch The Two Popes. It’s such a fantastic film, amazing, tight cast. One of my favourite ever movies.

Not really the correct thread for it, but Virginia Giuffre has taken her own life.

First of all, I'm surprised he was still kicking. Secondly, only 76? That means he was in his early 30s during the Cheers heyday?

Mimi · **Joined:** 27th Mar, 2008 **Posts:** 26675

Yeah, they were all really young. John Ratzenburger was (checking years, doing maths, hold on…) 35 when it started and George Wendt was 33.

What a shame. I always liked him especially when I read an article about his favourite bands and they were all punk bands.

It's the clothes, hair and facial hair choices I reckon. And the already 20 years of smoking and how it affects the skin.

Also I think it's because I was a child when I was watching it and they always looked like old men

That's sad. I remember he was very physically fit when he was a ref. Did martial arts and whatever. 65. Eesh.

Wincey Willis apparently died in December but its only being reported today :

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wincey_Willis

Quote:

Willis died of fronto-temporal dementia on 19 December 2024, at the age of 76. The news of her death was only published in the newspapers on 18 June 2025.

TheVision · **Posted:** Wed Jun 18, 2025 18:49

That's odd as I only googled her the other day to see if she was still alive.

Mimi · **Joined:** 27th Mar, 2008 **Posts:** 26675

Sounds a bit suspish if you ask me, Mr Vision.

Blucey · **Joined:** 30th Mar, 2008 **Posts:** 2353

My main memory of Wincey Willis was seeing the video for Killing Joke's Kings and Queens being played on TVAM or whatever it was back then and then it cutting to her about to do the weather.

Which is pretty mad given that the song sounds like this.
