R.I.P Honor Blackman

Post by Boatbuilder »

Sad to hear that Honor Blackman has sadly passed away, from natural causes, at the age of 94. R.I.P. 'Pussy Galore'.

I meet her once. I think it was 1999 and at Memorabilia Birmingham and I was in line for a Ray Park (Darth Maul) autograph and the queue was huge, going past the table she was on, signing autographs and posing for pics etc, etc. She was very pleasant and somewhat taken back by how many people where in line to meet a stuntman no one had heard of :lol:

RIP Honor.

Very sad news. RIP Honor Blackman. Goldfinger is undisputedly the best Bond and she was one of the reasons why.

So sad news to hear of the passing of Honor Blackman. I know most people will always associate her with the Bond movie, but its watching the old repeats of the 60's Avengers that I'll remember her in the most! R.I.P. HB :cry:

Honor Blackman will always be Cathy Gale for me in The Avengers. I've got some of those episodes on DVD most of which were recorded live. RIP.
