Busy weekend for celebrity deaths. Doris has been out of the spotlight for a long time, but she was one of Hollywood's biggest stars ever 60 years ago. R.I.P.

EDIT: not as busy as I thought, turns out I was more right than I thought when my mother told me Lena Horne died and I said she was one I would have thought died a long time ago...she did, she died 9 years ago. Apparently news of her death cycled anew on social media due to a misunderstanding over the announcement of the 9th anniversary of her death.

But still, I see Jim Fowler died last week, and The Mod Squad's Peggy Lipton died this weekend aged 72.

Queen of the virginal rom-coms of the 50s and 60s. For another side of her, check out Love Me or Leave Me, an unconventional musical with James Cagney.

"I knew Doris Day before she was a virgin."

I thought she had died years ago to be honest.
