    How recently was that information released?

    I think it was Betty White who said something to that extent a few months ago when the Golden Girls DVDs were launched in the States. It was either her or Bea Arthur anyway.

     

    While I will be sad when she passes away, she's the joker in my DDP so if she's going to die soon, please let it be in 2006 :banghead:

    Someone of his age shouldn't wear a top like that.

     

    As for being a Jonathan King-type, Glitter is fully aware of the wrong he's done and isn't looking for pity. It seems he's one of these paedo types to whom it is like an illness.

    Fine dancer, good actress, decent journalist.  :rip:

    And Eurovision presenter back in 1972. Guess where the UK finished that year?

     

    That's right.

     

    Second.

     

    AGAIN :banghead:

     

    I actually thought she'd died years ago to be honest.

    Yes it was her. Don't know much about her now though, so I'm not sure if she's a candidate for next year or not. She doesn't seem to have worked for ages though

    She was a regular in the Sunday papers throughout the late 70s and 80s due to various problems, but hasn't appeared in them for a long time. Either she's cleaned up her act or, most likely, most people under 35 wouldn't have a clue who she was so there's no point covering her.

     

    As far as I'm aware she's in reasonable health. She's not that old either though getting into that area where heart attacks, strokes and other unforeseen, sudden ailments are commonplace.

    I have to say that the Sun's writers are among the most talented journos in the world.

    Highest number of journos with firsts out of all the media in the UK I think.

     

    Writing dumbed down copy is an artform in itself and shouldn't be dismissed. You may not like the editorial diktat but there's nothing wrong with the writing (apart from some of the twunt columnists that is).

    ;) I do believe Claire owns several pairs of comfortable shoes.

    Indeed, she has more pairs than Imelda Marcos.

     

    I don't know if it's still the case but she was going out with the woman who reads (read?) the Radio 4 shipping forecasts who used to go out with Sandi Toksvig.

     

    As for horse names, they are supposed to be unique - some of the names come from who they've been bred from (like greyhound names do), other times they are totally random. My favourite horse name is Sir Sidney RoughDiamond.

    I work with someone whos Mother is friendly with the woman who irons his shirts.... B)

    He's in fine fettle !

    Being in the God's Own County area, I see him out and about occasionally. Looks like a tramp most of the time but yes, in fine fettle. I can't see him dropping dead just yet.

    Has anyone any idea how old Ronnie is?

    The ingenius creator of tv show theme music such as The Two Ronnies, Three Up Two Down, Blankety Blank, Some Mothers Do Ave 'Em, It's a Knockout and various other shows.

    The One Ronnie

    A great and talented man. :D check the site.

    Yes he is. But the ESC arrangement for Bardo's One Step Further in 1982 was rubbish. Should have stuck with the A Song For Europe one Ronnie!

    DJ Mark Spoon of Jam & Spoon fame has died aged 39 :rip:

     

    Initial reports suspect a heart attack, though seeing as he has been described before as a "party animal" I suspect his heart may have had some help in stopping... He 'discovered' and managed Snap! and Dr Alban, so cheers for that...

    Gunther Dietz - Died 8 or 9-?-1997 ( Heavy Metal ) He dove off the stage during a concert, the crowd moved away and he smashed onto the concrete floor.

    Well, I'm more of a schlager and NDW gal myself but I recall hearing about it at the time so I think it did. Dunno about who the band were, I presume they weren't particularly famous or there'd be more about it online.

     

    Nicked from elsewhere...

     

    "Gunther punched his fist in the air, shouted 'Catch me!', and jumped off the stage... But we didn't even try to catch him. Oh no. We all just stepped out of the way, and roared with laughter when he hit the concrete.

     

    ...

     

    "He smashed head first into the concrete floor. He remained conscious for about a minute and kept crying out for his mummy. [This is the bit I like-VT] Somebody pissed over him which I thought was a bit rude. But, if you ask me, he got what he deserved." :dead:

    Yes indeed Death Warmed Up - Arfur and Hilda duetted on an 'hilarious' rendidtion of 'You're The One That I Want.'

    And if you watch German TV on a regular basis you'll also see that Arfur n Hilda weren't the only ones to send up 'You're The One That I Want', as the marvellous Helga Feddersen (gestorben) and Dieter Hallervorden (keine gestorben) did similar with 'Du, Die Wanne Ist Voll'.

     

    That other dead pop stars link is pretty good, if a bit unuser friendly, but I'm shocked that someone as prominent as Michel Berger isn't mentioned (did a few foreign pop stars as a test to see how reliable it was).

     

    As for Father Abraham, he has a website you know... Born 1935, so not as old as I thought.
