    The same guy then. It makes a difference because the unions might have just said, that's it, we're out of here, and several new football venues don't get finished on time. It's reckoned they won't be finished in any case, hence why they've been over working people.

    Two yesterday - the one who fell from the roof and the one from the heart attack, as it says in the article Beefy posted.

    Oh... Peter O'Toole has died. Amazes me how long he's held on for, since he was a huge smoker and drinker. Only 81. He's looked 81 for the past 20 years, due to his lifestyle. I think Oliver Reed kicking the bucket changed him a bit though.

    Well OK, maybe that is two in two days then. Blimey.

    EDIT: Here we go:

    A worker has been killed in Brazil after falling from the roof of a stadium being built in the Amazon region for the 2014 football World Cup.

    Marcleudo de Melo Ferreira, 22, died in hospital in Manaus after falling nearly 35m (115ft).
    Hours later, another worker died of a heart attack at a nearby site. His family said he was overworked.
    The builders' union is discussing whether to strike over working conditions.

    So that's three in about a fortnight. These World Cups and tournaments have a lot to answer for in their race to build stadiums.

    Famously, he was the guy who shouted... no prisoners, no prisoners, as Lawrence of Arabia, in the film. Also, T.E. Lawrence has a bit of a reputation amongst motorcyclists, and O'Toole gets a bit of that passed onto him.

    Wherever Reed, Burton, Harris and O'Toole have ended up is the place to go to when you die.

    QPR manager Harry Redknapp has admitted to a secret addiction to feeding birds and says he spends almost £2,000 a year on bird feed.

    If you want to see British acting at its very very best, watch Peter O'Toole in Rogue Male.
