Octopus of Odstock 2,175 Posted October 2, 2007 Ronnie Hazlehurst, who wrote so many TV theme tunes has died aged 79.... A great shame. I especially liked the dramatic sweeping scores like Yes, Minister & to The Manor Born & nowadays, the theme tune to Last of the Summer Wine is the best thing about it. His music will live on long after he does, which is a good legacy to have. Anyway, keeping on topic, former Northern Ireland international footballer & Doncaster Rovers legend, Len Graham has died, aged 82. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Paul Bearer 6,074 Posted October 6, 2007 Notorious pedofile David Atcheson has committed suicide I'd hardly use the word 'notorious'. He's just a nonce in a 'respected' occupation who got caught in a sting operation. He was charged with three felonies, the most serious of which was crossing state lines with intent to have sex with someone under 12. A conviction had carried a minimum of 30 years in prison. notorious • adjective famous for some bad quality or deed. — DERIVATIVES notoriety noun notoriously adverb.
