 | Bad news this morning, double Oscar winner Gene Hackman and his wife have both been found dead at their home in America along with their pet dog. Police say they do not suspect foul play but something weird must have happened for them to all die at the same time, the dog couldn't have committed suicide. Gene was 95, unbelievably, and his wife only 63. He made some great films, including "Bonnie and Clyde" in 1967 where he played Clyde's brother Buck and, of course, my two favourites 17 years apart "The French Connection" in 1971 and "Mississippi Burning" in 1988. |

The first thing I thought was carbon monoxide poisoning too, but there are a few suspicious details. However the news also has a tendency to do sensationalism,
by repeating unverified claims, just to hook their viewers.

Sad news anyway.
