It seems to me we have reached that age where icons from our past are all passing away , its saddens me as it shows time moves on for all

Mash used to be one of my favourites. “Hot Lips” was a memorable character.

Sad news, I always liked M.A.S.H.but the version without the 'laugh track', sadly when it was repeated on one of the satelite/cable channels they showed the American version

Kellerman was the film Hot-lips, not the TV series, that was Loretta Swit

Sadly she was younger than I am which really make me feel old.

But she was the original

True enough

Donald Sunderland, or Alan Alda?

Being old is better than the alternative!

Sutherland is class, and IIRC he was good in the film; but sometimes "The Original" isn't definitive. Alda made that role his own, and pretty much made MASH for me. (sorry Radar).

Although I still remember the Hot Lips shower scene rather vividly ... can't see that featuring in a modern sitcom anytime soon ...

Talking of originals, I always thought Jodie Foster was better in the TV series, Paper Moon than Tantrum O'Neil was in the same role in the film, Paper Moon. Mind you, me and Jodie - same date of birth!

Oh, I remember her from the second Trek pilot 'Where No Man Has Gone Before'.
