R. Lee Ermey. Played one of the most iconic film characters of the eighties. I watched the most recent Texas Chainsaw Massacre film last year. It was terrible. But Ermey was fantastically scary as the psycho sheriff.

A South Korean actress, once kidnapped by North Korea and forced to make films for the state, has died at 92. Choi Eun-hee was a leading actress in the South when she was kidnapped under the orders of then-leader Kim Jong-il in the late 1970s . Her ex-husband, a famous film director, was also abducted several months later. The duo later escaped. North Korea has always denied abducting the couple, saying they had sought sanctuary there. Ms Choi died on Monday afternoon in hospital in South Korea. "My mother passed when she went to hospital for kidney dialysis this afternoon," Ms Choi's eldest son, director Shin Jeong-gyun told news outlet Yonhap.

The renowned Irish country music singer, Big Tom McBride, has died at the age of 81. Mr McBride's career spanned more than five decades on the Irish country music scene. In a statement, his family said Mr McBride had "passed away peacefully". They said he would "be sadly missed by all who knew him". The County Monaghan man was inducted into the Irish Country Music Awards Hall of Fame in June 2016. Donegal singer, Daniel O'Donnell, said the world of country music "is a richer place" because of the music Mr McBride left behind. "I am only getting my head around it," he told Irish broadcaster RTÉ . "It is just so sad. I am sure his family are devastated at his passing.

"I grew up all through Big Tom's career. We all referred to him as The King. "There was something special about his music, Big Tom was the one everyone saw as the main man." Mr McBride was known for his performances as the lead singer of Irish showband Big Tom And The Mainliners, who were formed in the 1960s. They had a number of Irish chart hits including Old Log Cabin For Sale, Broken Marriage Vows and The Sunset Years Of Life. Singer and BBC broadcaster Hugo Duncan described Mr McBride as a "lovely gentleman". "He was somebody you just wanted to be in his company," he told BBC Radio Ulster.
