Vinegar Tits

Sad news if true. I remember her from Channel 4's 'Manhattan Cable' (a few years before Clive James) and she was always hilarious. I also saw her live in Sunderland in 1995(?) - fab, of course, and my friend Mark got a kiss from her which he's never quite lived down.

Bowel cancer has spread.

I liked her dress! Quite a natty off-the-shoulder look. Mind you, as this is what we dressed like, I can't really comment too much...

He had a fling with Stevie Nicks while producing her 'The Other Side Of The Mirror' album, the lucky sod. They broke up due to him taking coke around her, which she hadn't long been off.

Did the dirty on Mary Roos too, which is why her performance of 'Aufrecht Geh'n' at the 1984 Eurovision Song Contest is interesting to watch when you know the background to why she seemed so distracted*. *She found out that Böhm's mistress was expecting his child shortly before.

That picture of Steve Priest above isn't very recent - it's around 10 years old. He lost a shedload of weight about two years ago. Such sad news, especially as there'd been recent news that he was recovering from (certainly at the time non--Covid-related) pneumonia and was doing better. Though I'm just slightly too young to remember The Sweet in their glam heyday, though do remember and liked at the time 'Love Is Like Oxygen', they were always my favourites of that era. In fact, I think I'd go as far as to say they were the best band not only of glam but of the early/mid 70s. Superb, and their records still sound fantastic to this day (apart from Call Me, which was always shit). RIP Steve

Sad news. I watched 'Bellle De Jour' just the other week. A great actor. RIP.

The real star of Gardeners World, Monty Don's dog Nigel, has died. News was broken by Monty on Twitter. Sad news. RIP Nigel

Oh flip. Posted in wrong thread.

Not yellow enough for liver. Mind you, the colour in the clip seemed a bit weird - a bit red enhanced and bright - so... To me, he has the look and sound of someone who is ageing. In the recent pic earlier in the thread his hair is looking thin on top, his voice has got that beginning to age crackle and he looks a bit knackered. He's a year younger than me so, while he's hardly old, he's decidedly middle aged, plus his size is akin to Northern stand-up comedians of the 70s and look how may of them died young(ish). Of course, this could all be speculation and there's nowt wrong with him; the ailment is with a family member, which I remains the case. I personally have felt he's looked like a heart attack waiting to happen for years, not just his weight but how he always looks so sweaty.

Defijitely thinner, and overall he seems to look smaller and frailer, which is what old age does to you. Still pretty good for 86. He's occasionally to be seen in Tenterden Waitrose, usually down the wine aisle. Crowborough Waitrose is another Tom-spot. I, of course, have never seen him which makes me sad.

Actually, her face looks like it's relaxing after a bit of Botox/tightening. She definitely looks a little bit more natural than she did at her Palladium shows.

Would definitely be the biggest death since Diana, seeing as he is the current prime minister. I have a bad feeling about this too. I'm not sure it'll cause panic across the world though - there's far too much footage of him saying 'take it on the chin', shaking hands and generally going against all advice. Use him as a warning that it can happen to anyone, that's what I'd be doing were I the foreign press.

While I wish him all the best, I have absolutely no sympathy for him whatsoever. His cavalier attitude has probably cost lives already, as well as putting his own and others at risk.

A little late but it's just struck me that Eddie Large is the first coronavirus victim that is also a victim of The Curse Of HMHB.
