William Russell has died, aged 99. He played Ian Chesterton - one of the original companions - on Doctor Who.
 
Its not on TMZ. They usually have pretty good info a head of the official release of news.
Bruce Willis has allegedly passed.
Plausible given his health issues. Will update if substantiated.

Get together, have a few laughs.

Like what pope said, TMZ is pretty much reliable when it comes to this info. You can count on one hand the number of times they've been wrong.

The problem with them isn't their reliability, it's that they are completely unethical when it comes to finding their sources.

One for the Australians here, June 4 saw the death of John Blackman, from a heart attack.

Blackman was a radio and television presenter, VA, and comedian. He is best known for his 28 years on Hey Hey It's Saturday, where he voiced a multitude of characters, including Dickie Knee and Mrs Macgillicuddy. Away from HHIS, Blackman's radio career saw him hosting programs on around a dozen different radio stations.

John Blackman saw adversity later on in life, having a golf-ball-size benign meningioma brain tumour removed in 2008, and losing his jaw to basal-cell carcinoma in 2018.
