    That's a shame. I used to love watching Space 1999 on a Saturday morning.

     One of those people that you're never sure is still alive or not. RIP. I loved the original Mission Impossible *


    * Wasn't sure if Peter Graves was still around or not, so I checked Wiki, turns out he died in 2010.  I hadn't realised he was James Arness' brother though.

    I didn't know that either, I can't believe a fact like that has escaped me for all these years.  Could be useful in a pub quiz.

    Returning to Martin Landau, great character actor who was consistently good in lots of different things.  I don't think Mission: Impossible and Space: 1999 (all those colons!) have aged very well, but he's one of those actors I'm always pleased to see cropping up in a supporting role.

    Very fond memories of Space: 1999, and his supporting turn as Lugosi in Tim Burton's Ed Wood was a real career highlight for me.

    Honestly.. For some reason I thought he'd died a while ago. I can't keep up with all these celeb deaths :(
