The word 'giant' struck me as odd too.

Apart from physical stature, he seemed more a mid-ranking actor to me.

Daniel Day-Lewis or Ian McKellan would be 'giants' in British Film...but Alan Rickman...not really.

I'm have a bit of a giggle at the thought of the jam sessions going on right now over in the "afterlife" (Lemmy, John Bradbury, David Bowie, Glen Frey & Dale G) ...

Tons of deaths so far and yet no one that anyone had on the spreadsheet!

Annoyingly, in December I actually thought at one point that I should add Rene Angelil, but then totally forgot about it when I was actually doing my picks! Bah!

And from a quick google, yes Joe Cocker died on 22 Dec 2014.
