• She married her second husband Jim Elliott in December 2001, shortly before she died from adrenal cancer on 19 December, at age 37. Paul Rhys, the British actor was her great life partner. He nursed her through her illness. She died on his birthday .

This reads as if Paul Rhys was the main guy in her life, the one who looked after her in her final days, but shortly before her death she married a different guy, Jim Elliott. This needs some sort of explanation. -- Jack of Oz ^{[pleasantries]} 21:45, 27 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

What exactly is a ‘cultural figure’? Could I become one? Is there a TAFE course? Some sort of surgery required?

I am reminded of the Henry Root letters, wherein we see the redoubtable Root writing to a London gossip columnist demanding to know what he meant by describing Mr Someone as ‘a man about town’.

The columnist replied rather huffily that if Root didn’t know what a ‘man about town’ is, perhaps he shouldn’t be reading the column.

‘Cultural figure’ seems like a tip-toe euphemism for something or other. Can it be something to do with what Sir Les Patterson called ‘The Yartz’?

Perhaps I shouldn’t read Wikipedia. 2001:44B8:3102:BB00:C530:85B6:8F93:6538 (talk) 00:47, 1 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
