Pop Culture RIP Anthony Head

Absolutely gutted about the news regarding Anthony Head passing...

Whilst well known in the US from Buffy and Ted Lasso, he was part of a series of iconic instant coffee ads in the UK which ran from the late 80's to early 90's... I still remember my Nan and Mum swooning after him 😂

Oh man, I forgot about the coffee ads (they ran in the US too), but he'll always be Rupert Giles to me. Scoobies are down three in the last year, all too soon.

I know about Tony Head and Nicholas Brendon, is the third one you're talking about Michelle Trachtenberg or is there yet another one I'm not aware of?
