Jack Hedley, who featured in films including James Bond’s For Your Eyes Only and Lawrence of Arabia, along with a string of UK TV hits, has died aged 92.
A note in today’s Times said Hedley, who was born Jack Hawkins, had died on December 11 after a “short illness bravely borne.” At Hedley’s request, there will be no funeral.
Hedley was born in London in 1929 and started appearing in films in the 1950s. He starred in the BBC series The World of Tim Frazer in the early 1960s and went on to feature in a number of films that decade, including Lawrence of Arabia, The Scarlet Blade, Witchcraft and The Secret of Blood Island (pictured).
He was to further make a name for himself many years later when he was cast as Sir Timothy Havelock in James Bond’s For Your Eyes Only, for which he also voiced Havelock’s Parrot.

While Downton writer and creator Julian Fellowes has two projects in the pipeline – a miniseries, Dr. Thorne, and a show for NBC, The Gilded Age, fans still have a bit to wait until those will hit their screens (Gilded Age has been said to be aiming for a 2017 release, while Dr. Thorne may be coming at the end of the year.)

After directing tons of made for television films, mini-series, and various TV episodes, British director Simon Curtis made an extremely impressive leap to the big screen with his first feature, My Week with Marilyn, earning a Golden Globe nomination and Oscar nominations for its two stars. Not too shabby. THR is reporting that Curtis is in talks to direct The Buccaneers, and before you get excited, no - this isn't a pirate adventure set on the high seas. It's based on Edith Wharton's final novel and centers on a group of high society American women who head overseas to England after being unlucky in love in New York City. Wharton wrote the original novel back in 1937 but it was unfinished when she died, so scholar Marion Mainwaring finished it in the early 1990s. The book has already been adapted for the small screen by the BBC, but Heidi Thomas,...

Simon Curtis is a filmmaker who doesn't stand out much. In fact, most people probably wouldn't know he directed "My Week With Marilyn," which got pushed into Oscar territory thanks to the tireless efforts of Harvey Weinstein, not becuase it was a particularly good film. And prior to that, the filmmaker was "known" for his work on Brit TV, which again, hardly made him a standout. So an adaptation of an Edith Wharton novel seems like exactly the sort of material he would take on. And indeed, he will be taking on the author's unfinished work "The Buccaneers" because Merchant/Ivory can't. Okay, we're being a bit snarky here, but another high-society tale of women finding men etc etc -- haven't we seen this already? Actually, some of you may already have as the BBC did a five-part mini-series in 1995, albeit with a different ending than the one penned by Marion Mainwaring,...

The story finds five wealthy, ambitious American socialites who tire of trying to find suitable husbands in New York. So they head to England to take part in the London season and track down landed but impoverished gentlemen who would make likely matches.Wharton died in 1937 leaving the book unfinished and it was published the following year without a conclusion. Then in 1993, after studying the synopsis and notes, Wharton scholar Marion Mainwaring finished the novel. And, independently, the BBC hired Maggie Wadey to adapt and finish the novel herself for a miniseries that hit screens...

PBS Mystery - Three Act Tragedy
Every Friday, get 2 for 1 movie tickets when you use your Visa Signature card.
After three weeks of repeats, PBS Mystery finally launched its summer season with the Poirot story Three Act Tragedy. Our favorite Belgian detective was a dinner guest at the home of Sir Charles Cartwright when one of the other guests dropped dead. The victim was the local vicar and even though the initial diagnosis suggested that the Clergyman had died of natural causes, it was only a matter of time before Poirot uncovered foul play. The fact that another dinner party guest dropped dead just a few weeks later was a pretty good clue that something was amiss in the Cornish social world. As Agatha Christie stories go, this one was more of a Miss Marple type scenario than your typical Poirot. Nevertheless, it was very good and if the next...
