Love the pic, but there's got to be a better way to phrase post titles like this without sounding like an obituary.

am not so good with the titles
No worries, just caught me off guard is all.
Same. Maybe start it with [Still alive] Sir Ian...
You could just title it Sir Ian on a motorbike in 1965
I did not read it like that at all...
Ride, LYH26K! Show us the meaning of haste!
It can't be. Sir Ian McKellen is old so this photo taken in 1965 is fake
truly one of the bestworst pieces of TV ever made
He's looking at a twink in the distance, maybe decades away.
It's the old twink-squint
I also get a Timothy Dalton vibe as well…
