2024-02-09 - 1:44 pm - Happy 100th birthday, Woody Woodbury! |
|
Today we celebrate a very special birthday. The American actor, comedian and musician Woody Woodbury is 100 years today! Spencer/Hill fans know Woody as Admiral O'Connors in "Pair and impair", as Major in "Super Snooper" and finally as the agent in "Go for it" who hands Doug and Rosco the suitcase full of money on the plane.
Woody only acted on the side. In the USA, he is mainly known as a comedian and above all as a TV presenter. First he takes over Johnny Carson's "The Tonight Show" in 1962 and then hosts his own "The Woody Woodbury Show" from 1967. Woody still lives in Fort Lauderdale, where he was inducted onto the Walk of Fame in 2012. He is the father of two children and sometimes even performs as a comedian at private parties.

2023-03-29 - 7:14 am - Happy Birthday Terence Hill! |
|
We congratulate acting legend Terence Hill to his 84th birthday today and wish him much happiness, success, fun and of course continued health for the coming years! We are looking forward to the new movie he wants to shoot this year and hope very much that there will soon be an opportunity to meet him in person, because he is not only a great actor, but first and foremost a great person! All the best, Terence!
In honor of his birthday, the Bud Spencer Museum in Berlin will unveil a new life-like figure today featuring Terence Hill in his longest-running role as Don Matteo. Berlin-based artist Lisa Büscher hand-sculpted the lifelike figure out of silicone, recreating the original down to the smallest detail with tens of thousands of manually placed hairs. |
