Well here's one you can -

'Star Wars' actor dies at 87



Kenneth Colley, the English actor known for his portrayal of Admiral Piett in the "Star Wars" franchise, has died at the age of 87, according to several reports. Colley died at home in Ashford, Kent after battling COVID-19 and pneumonia, his representative, Julian Owen, told the BBC in a statement. He was initially admitted to the hospital after hurting his arm in a fall, and then quickly caught the virus, according to the statement.

Owens praised Colley's six-decade body of work, calling him "one of our finest character actors."

"Ken continually worked on stage, film, and television playing a vast array of characters, from Jesus in Monty Python's Life of Brian to evil and eccentric characters in Ken Russell films, and the Duke of Vienna in Shakespeare's Measure for Measure for the BBC," Owens said in the statement.

Among Colley's extensive acting credits were roles in Clint Eastwood's "Firefox," "War and Remembrance," and "The Rainbow."

I can't say I was a fan. But, that fella's name is synonymous with hard rock.

Ozzy died almost exactly 15 years after Ronnie James Dio who was a much better singer and musician.

I don't start suddenly speaking well of someone just because they died. I'm like Biggz that way.

Ozzy was a clown who surrounded himself with talented people. His voice had thin range, he couldn't play any instrument, he didn't write songs. Without people like Tony Iommi, Geezer Butler and Randy Rhodes he would't even have been a footnote in hard rock history. The imbecile didn't even know what key he sang in

One other thing why I didn't respect him is because he and Sharon ripped off his solo band. Jake E Lee wrote all the music and most of the lyrics for Bark At The Moon. He wasn't given credit for it nor compensated for it.

Did the music industry lose a great talent? Fuck no. Did the music industry lose an ethical person? Fuck no.

Ozzy Osbourne was a larger than life character. That is how many us will remember him.
