Alan White (72), drummer for John Lennon's early solo career, and then joined Yes in 1972.

Andy Fletcher (60), keyboard player with Depeche Mode.

Ray Liotta (67), actor best known for Goodfellas.

[Leon]

Ray Liotta was a bit of a surprise.  Goodfellas is one of those films that I'll watch whenever it's on, regardless if it's 10 minutes or 1 hour into it.

I've been meaning to catch the Sopranos prequel film with Liotta in it, I'll have to get it watched now.

[Techno 3]

Alan White ? 

[Duke Speedy of Leighton]

Fletch    love Depeche Mode and he was so much part of their sound.

[T13A]

Lester Piggot, great jockey. My granny's favourite.

Paul

[Peterem]

Two actors who turned in memorable performances but never quite made the summit: from the US Bo Hopkins, American Graffiti, Midnight Express and Crazy Lee in the Wild Bunch; and UK comedy actress Patricia Brake, Ronnie Barker's daughter in Porridge, later in almost all the UK soaps and seven different patients in Casualty and Holby.

Phil Bennet, Welsh rugby legend, aged 72 . He will always be remembered for 'that try' :

[John Cook]

Arguably the best fly-half ever.  I never tire of watching that Barbarians/All Blacks game.  72 is no age, very sad.
