Alan Thicke’s doctor dad is about to face the music. The College of Physicians and Surgeons of Ontario secretly dismissed a sexual assault complaint against 88-year-old Brian Thicke, but the decision has been reversed upon review—with recognition that the mid-'90s breast exams that he conducted on a woman seeking a pilot licence weren’t required by Transport Canada. The doctor’s cash-strapped grandson, Robin Thicke, who was crooning "Blurred Lines" on Saturday at
the Seneca Niagara casino, recently recalled his Brampton grandpa flying him over the Falls in a private plane.

Chris Tsangarides dead at 61. The producer of strident British heavy metal acts like Helloween and King Diamond was an unlikely choice to produce the Tragically Hip’s Fully Completely in 1992, yet it was the album that solidified their Canadian fame. Tsangarides also worked with the Toronto band Anvil on its early albums, which fell short of success. Their effort to pay him for another try provided a plotline for their documentary, Anvil! The Story of
Anvil.
