Edward Woodward also died today.
He was the star of The Equalizer (above) - a show I video-taped regularly for my Dad to watch on weekend mornings. Other than Magnum, P.I., I think Equalizer was probably his favorite show at the time.
He was also the star of The Wicker Man (the '70s original) - a movie my Scottish brother-in-law thinks is the scariest ever made.
Here's Woodward as "The Equalizer".
