Career: Lee hit the big time in 1957 when his formidable height landed him the role of the monster in Hammer's The Curse of Frankenstein. It marked the beginning of his horror movie partnership with Peter Cushing, which also included such films as Dracula, The Mummy, and The Gorgon. Lee went on to become one of the world's most prolific actors. Star Wars episodes II and III and The Lord of the Rings introduced him to a new generation of fans. Other significant titles include The Wicker Man, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, Gremlins II, The Man with the Golden Gun and The Golden Compass. He also appeared in Alice in Wonderland, Burke and Hare, Season of the Witch and The Hobbit. He died on June 7, 2015, at the age of 93 due to respiratory problems and heart failure.

Career: His band secured a regular place at the 2i coffee bar in Soho, the starting point for a host of big acts, including Tommy Steele and Cliff Richard. He was spotted there in 1958 by Six-Five Special producer Jack Good, who booked him for two appearances. After releasing three singles that flopped, he had a hit with What Do You Want? in 1959. A run of 11 top 20 hits over three years followed, but Faith quit singing in 1967 to concentrate on acting. His 1970 TV series Budgie was a huge success. He returned to the recording studio to produce albums for Leo Sayer and Roger Daltrey. Faith continued acting on stage, TV and in movies such as McVicar and Love Hurts. His career took an unlikely turn when he became a financial journalist in the 1980s and launched satellite TV station The Money Channel in 1999, but it flopped and was driven off air. He continued to act and perform live music. His death from a heart attack, in 2003, happened hours after leaving the stage in Stoke-on-Trent where he was appearing in the play Love and Marriage.
