Sue Lloyd, the actress who starred as Cordelia in The Baron and also appreared as Maggie of The Persuaders! episode Take Seven sadly passed away on Thursday 20th October.
Sue was a talented actress with a wicked sense of humour and was very self-deprecrating. She was also a big supporter of TMA and was interviewed for the magazine in August 2000 and was also one of the guests at the The Persuaders! 30th Anniversary party in September 2001. She contributed a number of DVD commentaries for the Umbrella release of The Baron and was always up for a laugh.
Amongst Sue's film highlights are The Ipcress File, Corruption, Innocent Bystanders, The Stud and The Bitch. Her many ITC series appearances include The Sentimental Agent, The Saint, Gideon's Way, Department S, Randall And Hopkirk (Deceased) and Jason King as well as ABC's The Avengers.
Sue was a very kind, gentle and fun-loving lady and will be sadly missed.

John Barry (1933 - 2011).
John Barry, the composer of The Persuaders! theme sadly passed away on Sunday 30th January.
John Barry was a legend in terms of film and TV music winning five Oscar's, four Grammy's and two BAFTA's. In a career that spanned over 40 years his name has always been linked to the James Bond films - working on 12 of them including From Russia With Love, Goldfinger, You Only Live Twice and my own personal favourite On Her Majesty's Secret Service.
Amongst John's film soundtrack highlights are Zulu, The Ipcress File, Born Free, The Quiller Memorandum, The Lion In Winter, Midnight Cowboy, Walkabout, The Tamarind Seed, Out Of Africa, Dances With Wolves and Enigma. He also contributed the superb theme to the ITC series including The Adventurer.
Roy Ward Baker (1916 - 2010).
Roy Ward Baker, the director of four episodes of The Persuaders! sadly passed away on Thursday 7th October.
Roy was an incredible director, having a long and varied career working in both film and television, he was also a big supporter of TMA and was interviewed for the magazine in July 1995 and was also one of the guests at the The Persuaders! 30th Anniversary party in September 2001.

Amongst Roy's film highlights are A Night To Remember, Quatermass And The Pit and And Now The Screaming Starts. He also directed many ITC series including The Saint, The Baron, Gideon's Way and Randall And Hopkirk (Deceased) as well as ABC's The Avengers.
Roy was a very kind, gentle and funny man and will be sadly missed.
Tony Curtis (1925 - 2010).
Tony Curtis, aka Danny Wilde in The Persuaders! sadly passed away on Thursday 29th September.
Tony was a superb actor, perhaps the best actor never to receive an Oscar and will deeply be missed. TMA not only admired is portrayal of Danny Wilde but very much enjoyed his films Spartacus, The Sweet Smell of Success, The Defiant Ones, Some Like It Hot, The Boston Strangler, The Great Race, Monte Carlo or Bust (a very Danny Wilde type character) and numerous others, too many to mention.
Farewell Tony we will miss you.
Five unmade storylines for The Persuaders! discovered.
Twelve years ago I made contact with the widow of Tony Williamson (script-writer on many ITC series) who informed me that somewhere in her loft she had some scripts from The Persuaders! including five unmade storylines. A few years ago I got back in contact with her and after a weekend of rummaging she located the storylines and sent me photocopies. Last week she very kindly gave the originals to me and I can now reveal that four of the five were intended to be episodes for a second series (which we all know was never made). In my last ever conversation with Bob Baker, he confirmed that he and Tony had worked on some script ideas for a proposed second series. The typed storylines themselves are detailed in how the episode opens, what happens in each act and how the story finishes and are three or four pages in length. The titles of the the storylines are: A Long Weekend (the only storyline titled as The Friendly Persuaders - a rejected story for the first series), A Shooting War, A Girl Could Get Killed..., Rendezvous and Invitation To A Funeral.
You can use any of these storylines for your arguments instead of racking your brains on how to write my essay and what ideas to present.

Robert 'Bob' S Baker Tribute.
I was very pleased to have been able to assist Sir Roger Moore and his PA Gareth Owen with their tribute to the late Bob Baker, held at Pinewood on 18th April. Bob was TMA's honourary president and will be sadly missed.
The volcanic ash cloud caused a few problems with Roger and Johnny Goodman being stuck in Europe but via Skype Roger was able to give us a fitting tribute to his business partner.
It was lovely to see so many faces from in front of and behind the camera pay their respects to Bob.
