Live Poll: Don't Dream It, Be It - In Loving Memory of Tim Curry (1946-2026)

Intro: 

Sadly, we mark the passing of British actor Timothy James Curry on August 25, 2026 at age 80. Born April 19, 1946 in Grappenhall, Cheshire, his five-decade career spanned stage, screen, and voice acting. Dr. Frank-N-Furter in The Rocky Horror Picture Show (1975) defined cultural iconography; villainous turns in IT (1990), Clue (1985), and The Three Musketeers (1993) showcased his range; voice work in Redwall (1999) and Over the Garden Wall (2014) captivated younger audiences. Until a 2012 stroke reduced his mobility, he remained prolific across genres. Beyond performance, he supported Great Ormond Street Hospital and Terrence Higgins Trust through fundraising and patronage. Cast your vote below: which facet of his career resonated most with you? Please condole here or feel free to watch the slideshow.

His range also included dramatic roles, as he did play the doctor on the submarine in "The Hunt for Red October."  He could do drama, comedy, voice over, musical, farce, and just about every genre successfully.

I did like him in every role I saw. I think he was widely underestimated.

Hey, old man. ;) I found a gap to place his role in "The Hunt for Red October" in a way that is appropriate for the whole poll. I've put in some more quality than in my usual ideas, because I really did like Curry. I was even close to cry for a few times, yesterday. So sorry, I needed some time to not derange the idea with the changes.

I did arrange the intro a little bit new.
