KSL.com :: Beloved Utah Jazz coach Jerry Sloan dies at 78

As a Utahn and one that grew up watching the Jazz during those years of him, Stockton and Malone, this one hurts Still remember being at my sister's high school graduation in '97, they were reading the names of each of the graduates as they entered by the giant school letter and one girl's name was called (I don't remember who she was) and all of the sudden the crowd erupted into thunderous cheers. Turns out a lot of people were listening on radios with headphones to the Jazz game against Houston and Stockton had just made the shot that sent us to the finals

He was definitely one of those “hey it’s that guy!” actors. I remember him from Quantum Leap.

Actor Michael Angelis, known for his roles in TV dramas such as Boys from the Blackstuff, and as the narrator of Thomas The Tank Engine, has died at the age of 76. He died suddenly while at home with his wife on Saturday, his agent said.

The Liverpool-born actor lent his voice to children's favourite Thomas and Friends for 13 series after taking over from Ringo Starr in 1991.

He appeared as Mickey Startup in Auf Wiedersehen, Pet, and starred alongside Bernard Hill and Julie Walters in the Bafta-winning 1980s series Boys from the Blackstuff, which highlighted the hardships of unemployment.

Angelis also had roles in Minder, The Liver Birds, Z Cars and Good Cop.

Paying tribute to him on social media, comedian Matt Lucas described Angelis as "one of the greatest TV actors I've ever seen
... His work with (screenwriter) Alan Bleasdale was tremendous. What a loss."

Actor Michael Angelis dies aged 76

Kinda thought he'd be around forever. Loved him in Boys from the Blackstuff and (especially) The Liver Birds. RIP Lucien.
