In an unfortunate coincidence Ed Bishop and Michael Billington, stars of the Gerry Anderson live action series UFO, have both died.
Ed Bishop recently appeared in the Doctor Who Unbound audio drama Full Fathom Five. He is believed to have died from a virus while undergoing hospital treatment. Michael Billington's cause of death is not known. Full obituaries at the website of Fanderson, the official Gerry Anderson Appreciation Society.
In a similar coincidence Roger Bowen and MacLean Stevenson, actors who portrayed Colonel Henry Blake in the MASH movie and television series respectivley, died within a day of each other in February 1996.

Oh mi god, both Ed and Michael. We should have had a UFO memorial at our meeting (or I should check this site more often). Would we be able to have a UFO memorial this meeting?
