The actor James Garner has died, aged 86. Garner was best known for his lead roles in Maverick and The Rockford Files, but was seen on television and cinema screens throughout his career, which spanned six decades, including roles in Grand Prix, Space Cowboys and The Notebook. He was said to have impressed racing experts during the filming of Grand Prix - so much that they said he could have raced professionally! He purchased a racing team and ran it for three seasons. He also drove the pace car for three Indianapolis 500 races. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-28390309 RIP James - yet another great, classic actor sadly no longer with us.
his work will live on, the greats never die, just sleep! :smile-new: ... if i recall correctly, he starred in stargate sg1 or atlantis for an episode or a few. played the part of a father to a humanoid woman in power, he was a loafer and a joker, that's all i can recall. played his parts to perfection (youtube fails there) ... rest easy, it's done!
