From comments on Facebook, it seems like he'd been seriously ill for a few years. Someone commented on Reddit saying they'd been on Eggheads a couple of years ago and Dave was ill back then, thought he may have had MS or ALS.
I'm surprised he hasn't had an obit on the BBC at all!

You can probably find all the series on All 4! Some of the joder ones are on Netflix.

Aw that's sad news. I had noticed she hadn't been in the most recent series but didn't realise she was ill. I know there's a new series coming up - I wonder if they'll have an episode for her character's funeral?

I was wondering earlier what would happen if there was a big celebrity death today - if it would distract at all from the impeachment trial or get buried by the coverage.

I think he's fairly well known over here - I remember hearing about him during the Bush years before I started following current affairs.
He won't lead the 10 o'clock news when he goes but I wouldn't be surprised if he makes it into all our papers. The Guardian would probably have a lot to say about him at least.

One of the most listened to radio hosts in the US and a slightly less toxic Alex Jones.

Rush Limbaugh has announced he has advanced lung cancer.
One for the list if he can make it to 2021?

Fair enough - should've guessed they'd have done it for Wogan! I assumed George V/VI would've had them as well but couldn't find any.

The RadioTimes have put him on their cover for next week's copy. I can't recall them putting an obit on their front page before?

BBC just sent through an alert on my phone (with a friendly reminder to block their notifications since it nearly made me jump out of my skin!) and it looks like they already have it as their lead story.

I'm sad to hear this. I have a couple of really good friends from Oman from uni and from what I've heard, he really modernised the country and was loved there. Oman is just about the most peaceful country in the region and I hope they can get a new sultan who can keep it on that path.

Civil rights leader and longtime US congressman John Lewis has just announced he has stage 4 pancreatic cancer. I think he's a big enough name, and unfortunately, unlikely to see 2021.

Paxman's stepping down from University Challenge. Not surprising, considering he seemed to go downhill quite quickly during the filming break in the pandemic and his Parkinson's diagnosis. I can't see him lasting more than a few years at this point unfortunately.
