Not Music but sad.
Dame Diana Rigg, famous for roles as Emma Peel in TV series The Avengers [with Patrick MacNee] and Olenna Tyrell in Game of Thrones, has died at the age of 82.
Her daughter, actress Rachael Stirling, said she died of cancer, after being diagnosed in March. "She spent her last months joyfully reflecting on her extraordinary life, full of love, laughter and a deep pride in her profession," she added.

Dame Diana also played the only woman who became Mrs James Bond. She played Tracy, who married George Lazenby's 007 in On Her Majesty's Secret Service (1969). Lazenby said he was "so sad" to hear of her death, while Bond producers Michael G Wilson and Barbara Broccoli also paid tribute.
