RIP beautiful lady. I'm really saddened by this one. Fell in love with her watching Grease as a kid, in lust with Physical, and always held her in the highest esteem as a woman of grace, charm, humour and heart. Same age as my mum and reminded me of her a lot.
Same here spook. My love when I was a kid during Grease in the late 70s. I always hoped to find a girlfriend exactly like her. It's amazing this train, it looks like it turned into the Australian music platform......Archie, Judith and now Olivia.

I was hopelessly devoted to Olivia, just a beautiful soul.

RIP Olivia.

RIP Olivia. This one hurt more than most. Grease such a big part of GenXer's childhood.

As someone on Twitter said we're going to start seeing a lot more notable people passing who were made famous from the 70s onwards by a vast increase in media exposure & marketing on TV, Movies, Music etc over that period.
There will be a lot more of this sense of loss.

Yep. Something I've noticed but still can't adapt to. Maybe because Hookesy (and my Dad) died in 2004.

I suppose with LTRTR also on the train, we start thinking for ourselves at 40 or 50+ at times...

Gorbachev was so significant, tried, but failed, to make the Soviet Union a more open and free society. Pity how the wrecking ball of neo-liberal fanatacism took over after the cold war and gave everything to the oligarchs and we end up where we are now.

John Annear came very close.

Hit a reef surfing central indian ocean and died for 4 minutes

And revived.

Hope his 4 minutes were restful and peaceful,

But Johnny's back.
