I'm surprised no-one else (superluser?) mentioned this, but it looks like Patrick McGoohan, best known for his role in (and work on) The Prisoner, died last night:

...he will be missed.
He is not a number, he is now a free man...
Requiescat en pace.
Someone mentioned it on another forum, so I figured it would be coming here eventually. I'd been talking about The Prisoner a bit recently, so I didn't want to seem like I had a one-track mind.
Yes, he will be missed. I still think this is the best video to remember him by (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SEVVwZEBC9o).
He will so be dearly missed
