We have just heard the very sad news that James MacArthur (The Night the Bridge Fell Down) died earlier today at the age of 72.  Best known for his role of Danny “Danno” Williams in Hawaii-5-0, Irwin Allen fans will also have enjoyed his work in the two part television movie The Night the Bridge Fell Down.
