Elisabeth Sladen
1946 - 2011

The world has lost someone truly special today.

Tom Baker's tribute.

There is a great tribute to Lis at the Doctor Who News Page and also at io9.

alan: I became fascinated with the world of musclemen and posing straps when I discovered Valentine Hooven's book "Beefcake" in the early 90's. The (mostly) straight men posing before the camera, exhibiting their finely-tuned bodies to the gay cameraman, were an instant turn-on for me. The history of these men and the photographers who immortalized them (albeit in someone's secret stash under the bed for 50 years) has pre-occupied me for the past 15-or-so years. I look forward to sharing some of my finds with you!
