Chewbacca actor Peter Mayhew dies aged 74

Peter Mayhew, the actor who played Chewbacca in the Star Wars films, has died aged 74, his family says.
He passed away at his home in Texas on 30 April with his family by his side, a statement said.
The British-American actor played giant Wookiee warrior Chewbacca in the original trilogy beginning in 1977 as well as later films until 2015.
"He put his heart and soul into the role of Chewbacca and it showed in every frame," his family said.
London-born Mayhew played Chewbacca in the original Star Wars trilogy, episode three of the prequels and the New Trilogy.
Star Wars creator George Lucas had wanted a tall actor to play Chewbacca - but initially considered 6ft 6in (1.98m) tall David Prowse for the role.
However Prowse instead wanted to play Darth Vader so Lucas then turned to Mayhew, who at 7ft 2in (2.18m) was chosen purely for his height. His face was never seen in the all the Star Wars films he played in.
"He fought his way back from being wheelchair-bound to stand tall and portray Chewbacca once more in Star Wars: The Force Awakens," his family said.
Mayhew also consulted on The Last Jedi, released in 2017, in an attempt to pass on the secrets of the role to his successor Finland's Joonas Suotamo.

Doris DAY - the Hollywood icon (1922)​

Her films, which included Alfred Hitchcock's The Man Who Knew Too Much and That Touch of Mink, made her known around the world. Her screen partnership with Rock Hudson was one of the biggest box-office draws of the 1950s and 60s. But she never won an Oscar and was nominated only once, in 1960, for Pillow Talk, the first of her three romantic comedies with Hudson.

Doris Day Helped Introduce America to AIDS, Showing Love and Empathy for Rock Hudson in 1985 on a cable talk show she hosted.

That footage would become an essential part of America’s understanding of acquired immune deficiency syndrome. It also began a long battle against discrimination and intolerance of the disease.

Tim CONWAY (1933)
US Comedy Actor
​

Tim Conway was one of the finest comedic actors ever on television. He came to fame as the bumbling second banana on McHale's Navy in the mid-1960s. He then did films, but really came in to his own working on The Carol Burnett Show where week after week he would attempt, and often succeed, at cracking up his fellow cast members on air.
