Don Adams, the wry-voiced comedian who starred as the fumbling secret agent Maxwell Smart in the 1960s TV spoof of James Bond movies, "Get Smart," has died. He was 82. Adams died of a lung infection late Sunday at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, his friend and former agent Bruce Tufeld said Monday, adding that the actor broke his hip a year ago and had been in ill health since.  
 
As the inept Agent 86 of the super-secret federal agency CONTROL, Adams captured TV viewers with his antics in combatting the evil agents of KAOS. When his explanations failed to convince the villains or his boss, he tried another tack:  
 
"Would you believe ... ?"  
 
It became a national catchphrase.  
 
The spy gadgets, which aped those of the Bond movies, were a popular feature, especially the pre-cellphone telephone in a shoe.

 Matthew Hopkins is the most notorious name in the history of English witchcraft, and was more commonly known as "The Witch-Finder General". Throughout his reign of terror, 1644-1646, he was responsible for the executions of some 230 alleged witches, more than all the other witch-hunters put together during the 160-year peak of the country's witchcraft hysteria.   http://www.edp24.co.uk/Content/Features/SpookyNorfolk/asp/EastNorfolk/Witchfinder.asp
