Terence Stamp, Luminary of 1960s British Cinema, Dies at 87

Terence Stamp, the magnetic British actor whose film roles included a naïve 18th-century merchant seaman in 'Billy Budd,' a violent 19th-century swordsman in 'Far From the Madding Crowd,' a tyrant from another planet in 'Superman' and a transgender nightclub entertainer in 'The Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert,' died on Sunday. He was 87. His family confirmed his death but did not specify where he died or the cause. Mr. Stamp was a boyish 24 when 'Billy Budd' (1962), based on Herman Melville's seafaring novel, was released. He looked into the camera with what one journalist later called his 'heartbreak blue eyes' and let his tousled blond hair fall over his forehead whenever his character was provoked — which was often, since he was being accused of murder. And he could act: The role brought Mr. Stamp an Oscar nomination and a Golden Globe Award for most promising newcomer. He presented a very different image three years later, playing a dark-haired psychopath who loves butterflies but decides to move up to capturing humans in 'The Collector' (1965). As he carried a bottle of chloroform toward a beautiful art student (Samantha Eggar), those startlingly blue eyes now seemed terrifying. In The New York Herald Tribune, the critic Judith Crist called his performance 'brilliant in its gauge' of madness. He received the best actor award at the Cannes Film Festival. He grew a sinister black mustache to play the sadistic Sergeant Troy, who mistreats the heroine (Julie Christie) in 'Far From the Madding Crowd' (1967), based on Thomas Hardy's novel. Reviews were mixed, but Roger Ebert praised Mr. Stamp's performance as 'suitably vile.' Looking back in 2015, a writer for The Guardian observed, 'Stamp has an animation and conviction in this role that he never equaled elsewhere.' Not long after that, Mr. Stamp largely disappeared for almost a decade. He came back as a character actor. When he made his entrance in Richard Donner's 'Superman' (1978), boldly crashing through a White House roof, audiences saw the young man who had been called the face of the '60s, now with a seriously receding hairline, devilish facial hair and a newly mature persona. His character, Zod, an alien supervillain with a burning desire to rule the world, returned in 'Superman II' (1980). Mr. Stamp had a busy career for the next half-century, perhaps most memorably in 'The Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert' (1994), with yet another new on-screen look. His character, Bernadette, a middle-aged transgender woman, wore dangly earrings, a grayish-blond pageboy, tasteful neutrals and not quite enough makeup to hide the age lines. 'I've got a kind of more developed feminine side of my nature,' he said in 2019 when asked about the role in a Reuters interview, 'so it was a chance to knowingly explore that.' 'I had to think about what it would be like to be born into the wrong body,' he added, 'and born into a body that wasn't the same as one's emotions.' Terence Henry Stamp was born on July 22, 1938, in London, one of five children of Thomas Stamp, a tugboat stoker with the Merchant Navy, and Ethel (Perrott) Stamp. In the low-income neighborhoods of the East End where the Stamps lived, expectations were low. 'When I asked for career guidance at school, they recommended bricklaying as a good, regular job,' Mr. Stamp recalled in a 2011 interview with the Irish newspaper The Sunday Business Post, 'although someone did think I might make a good Woolworths' manager.' After leaving school, Mr. Stamp worked in advertising agencies, but he secretly wanted to become an actor and began lessons at the Webber Douglas Academy of Dramatic Art in London. 'Billy Budd' is usually referred to as his first film, but in England, 'Term of Trial,' in which he appeared as a young tough alongside Laurence Olivier and Simone Signoret, was released a month earlier. (In the United States, 'Billy Budd' opened first.) He did theater work in England but had only one Broadway experience — a disaster. He played the title role in 'Alfie!,' a play about a callous young South London bachelor, which opened in December 1964 and closed three weeks later. Shawn Levy, in his book 'Ready, Steady, Go!,' had an explanation: 'It was so dark and frank and mean and true and generally disharmonious with the optimistic, up-tempo tenor of the moment.' But moments pass. Mr. Stamp turned down the same role in the 1966 film version, and Michael Caine — who happened to be his flatmate — took it instead. It made him a star. Mr. Stamp did star in 'Modesty Blaise' (1966), as a secret agent's Cockney sidekick; Ken Loach's 'Poor Cow' (1967), as a sensitive working-class guy; and Pier Paolo Pasolini's 'Theorem' (1968), as a mysterious stranger who beds every single member of a household, including the maid. Federico Fellini directed him as a self-destructive, alcoholic actor in 'Spirits of the Dead' (1968). In 1969, Mr. Stamp moved to an ashram in India and became a swami. Some said it was because of a romantic breakup, but he professed a simpler motive: He couldn't find work. Although he was barely in his 30s, casting agents were already looking for 'a young Terence Stamp.' Around eight years later, he received a message from his agent about the 'Superman' movie. He accepted, he often said, because he wanted to work with Marlon Brando, who played Jor-El, Superman's father. Between 1978 and 2019, Mr. Stamp appeared in more than 50 films. He received particular praise for Steven Soderbergh's 'The Limey' (1999), in which he played an ex-con on the trail of a drug-trafficking record producer (Peter Fonda) as he avenges his daughter's death. He also had roles in 'Legal Eagles' (1986), 'Wall Street' (1987), 'Young Guns' (1988), 'Alien Nation' (1988), and 'Star Wars: Episode 1 — The Phantom Menace' (1999), as chancellor of the Galactic Republic. In 'Unfinished Song' (2012, originally 'Song for Marion'), he played a gruff pensioner with a dying wife (Vanessa Redgrave). After having been a Superman-franchise villain, Mr. Stamp was the voice of the superhero's noble Kryptonian father in the television series 'Smallville.' His final film was the horror thriller 'Last Night in Soho' (2021). A Times review called his entrance alone 'a master class in minimalist menace.' In the 1960s, Mr. Stamp had highly publicized romances with the British supermodel Jean Shrimpton and with Ms. Christie. In 2002, at age 64, he married Elizabeth O'Rourke, a 29-year-old Australian pharmacist; they divorced in 2008. Information on survivors was not immediately available. Looking back philosophically in 2017 on his life's ups and downs, Mr. Stamp told The Telegraph, 'The thing that has been constant is that from the very beginning I always seemed to be the opposite to everybody else.'

These Countries Were Called the Rudest by Travelers — and One Was Mentioned Again and Again

Not every trip comes with warm smiles. Here are the countries visitors ranked as the most unfriendly. Traveling the world can be full of amazing moments, but not every destination leaves visitors feeling warm and fuzzy. In a recent social media thread, people shared which countries struck them as the most unfriendly. Some answers were lighthearted, others were downright shocking, and one country definitely stole the spotlight. Here's what people had to say: 10. Estonia One traveler didn't even hesitate: 'Estonia. I didn't even need to think.' They explained that nearly every encounter felt cold or unwelcoming. Yet, just across the water in Finland, they met some of the nicest people of their lives. Talk about a sharp contrast. 9. Italy (But Mostly the North) Italy got mixed reviews. Several travelers said folks in Rome and northern regions came across as rude or impatient, while the south was much friendlier. One person even gave Italians 'the lemon trophy' for being the unfriendliest, though they admitted friendliness exists everywhere if you look for it. 8. Spain Madrid, in particular, came up a few times. One traveler mentioned feeling brushed off, while another joked that Spanish men might be unfriendly, but still hot enough to distract from it. 7. England London, specifically, got called out for grumpy attitudes. One commenter described locals as 'cranky babies needing a nap,' while another said England took their personal 'Lemon Award' after some truly hostile encounters. On the flip side, a different traveler found Paris friendlier than London, so this one may come down to timing and luck. 6. The United States Yes, Americans even nominated their own country. Visitors pointed to customs agents in New York City, a chilly vibe in northern states compared to the south, and the awkward reality of being treated differently depending on where you land. One person simply said, 'America. And I was born here.' 5. Turkey Turkey split people love it, others not so much. One traveler recalled ordering tea during a layover in Istanbul and being met with silent hostility, saying they felt 'hatred without a word being said.' Another noted Turkey always pops up in these kinds of discussions, suggesting it has a reputation for mixed hospitality. 4. China China, especially Beijing, was mentioned for locals seeming grumpy or impatient with tourists. One person admitted they actually found it funny, but for others, it was a culture shock they didn't enjoy. 3. Russia Russia came up again and again in the thread, with people calling it cold, unwelcoming, and intimidating. Stories ranged from strangers never smiling to travelers being told not to grin in public because it would make them look suspicious. Others recalled scary run-ins, like bottles being thrown during a performance in Moscow. But here's the thing: not everyone who chimed in had actually visited were going off perception. And from my own experience living there, I found the reality a lot warmer. It's true that Russians don't smile at strangers on the street the way Americans or Canadians might, but once you start talking to people, they're often incredibly kind and generous. (In fact, that was one of the biggest culture shocks I wrote about in this article.) 2. Morocco Morocco left some travelers shaken. One person was groped on the street by a child while adults laughed, another recalled kids throwing rocks at their bus, and others described being harassed by overly aggressive sellers. For many, the experiences were uncomfortable enough that they said they wouldn't return. 1. France By far, France dominated the thread. From rude waiters to unhelpful locals, the stories piled up fast. Some travelers said Parisians ignored them when they spoke English, or corrected their French pronunciation without actually offering directions. One person even had a service worker scream at them in frustration. But here's the catch: not everyone agreed. A few travelers defended France, saying experiences outside Paris were far warmer, and some found Parisians delightful when they attempted even a little French. As one local pointed out: 'Paris is not France.' It's clear France and Russia came up the most, but it's worth remembering that every destination is nuanced. Attitudes can shift between cities, regions, or even just depending on how you approach people. One traveler summed it up perfectly: 'I've found no matter where I go, my reception matches the attitude I present.' And if you're curious about other destinations with a reputation for rudeness, you might want to check out which U.S. cities residents themselves say are the rudest, or take a look at the most dangerous travel destinations for 2025 before planning your next trip.

The hidden natural gem steeped in history and home to wildlife in Bolton

Bolton is blessed to be surrounded with some of the country's most beautiful natural landscapes – Smithills Country Park, Rivington Terraced Gardens and Jumbles Country Park to name just a few. But as a Bolton blow-in – I was surprised to find myself in similar locales without even straying further than Breightmet. Seven Acres Country Park is a beautiful section of heathland, woodland and lots of wetland areas – and the perfect spot for a summer walk. The reserve was designated in 2004 – and provides habitats for butterflies, dragonflies and birds. I was also lucky enough to catch sight of some deer in Bradshaw Brook – but unfortunately they spotted me and darted off before I could snap a photo. Have a story? Get in touch at Over 100 species of bird have been sighted in the park and its grasslands support 24 species of butterfly. Despite the name – Seven Acres Country Park covers much more than seven acres – 79 acres according to the Lancashire Wildlife Trust. (Image: Newsquest) The area used to be open farmland, and at one point hosted a medieval corn mill powered by a water mill, before being used for small-scale industry in the 19th century. After a period of dereliction – it was then turned into an informal recreational area for the local community.

(Image: Newsquest) The sycamore was used for timber because the wood's sap doesn't stain and has no odour. The industry in this area was mostly confined to two bleach works – and the remnants of Toothill Bridge Bleach Works can still be seen at the southern end of the site.
