I knew he had been quite ill for some time, but it still seems sad to see the death of such a versatile stage and screen villain.

So long, Tim Curry!

    I first saw 'The Rocky Horror Picture Show with my parents, I must have been about 10 yo. Talk about awkward!

    Is it just me, or does that film get better at every viewing?

    Hahaha @ChrisR777, I hadn't watched Rocky Horror before I went to watch the musical so imagine my surprise and confusion when I walked into the theatre and saw lots of people dressed as Frank N Furter🤣

    I can well imagine. When I was on the buses in London, I used to get passengers on their way to the Vauxhall Tavern. 😲

    Very tragic news, Frank Beard from ZZ Top, Dolly Parton and Tim Curry in the space of two weeks. All have left a massive legacy of work that will live on

    To date, this is one of my favourite movie scenes in the history of all movies. And this movie is one of my favourite movies in the history of all movies. What a blessing to have breathed the same air as Tim Curry. ❤️

    I remember him as the Receptionist from Home Alone 2: Lost in New York. Especially his big cheeky grin. Lol. RIP Tim.

    I'm just a sweet transvestite

    From Transexual, Transylvania!

    I was heard by my neighbour yesterday, I was singing too loudly! 🤣

    I've been making a man,

    With blonde hair and a tan,

    And he's good for relieving my ttttt-tension.

    ......

    I see you shiver,

    With anticipppp-ation.

    Maybe the rain is not really to blame,

    So I'll remove the cause,

    (giggle)

    But not the symptom.

    🤣🤣

    Spectacular.

    Absolutely spectacular.

    @ChrisR777 Sing it loud and like you mean it 🤣🤣

    I will be surprised if the BBC or whoever, doesn't show the film this weekend. It is several years since i've seen it.

    Loved him as the hotel manager in Home Alone 2 and the professor in the Scary Movie films.

    I have always managed to avoid the Home Alone films, I don't think I will ever feel the need! I have however seen some of the Scary Movies ( So bad they're good, right?).

    Mr Curry carried IT single handedly i thought, it had so much potential, but they blew it big time.

    Yeah, I haven't seen in a few years either so I'm renting it tonight. So excited!! Will be belting it out as loudly as possible, which is quite acceptable by the neighbours on a Saturday night. 😁
