I knew I knew the name. He was the postal guy who delivers a letter to Marty McFly in Back To The Future II.

Yeah dudes a comic genius. When you can share scenes with and match John Candy, you know you’re good.

You seriously posted kidney stones, rookie?  Fuck sake, maybe he has the sniffles… and a hangnail.  


They can kill you if they get stuck by causing complications eg sepsis, so worth mentioning I think.

 

iirc Pete Burns had them several years before he died. I think they can sometimes be a good indicator as to overall health. In saying that I’m at an athlete level of fitness and I’ve had them before, so just depends.

Rumours that Jerry Seinfeld has Parkinson's. Would be a shame since he booked a theatre for his 100th birthday many years ago.

After doing a bit more research, he has a similar tremor in a 3-year old interview...

Mark Steel has finished chemotherapy, had a video x-ray and is allowed to eat solid food again.

 

 

According to the man himself on X, Mark Steel is cancer-free:

 

A nice man from UCL Hospital called this week, to say a scan of me showed the cancer I had has all gone. The treatment worked, the cancer bottled it and ran off, the wimp.

I'm relieved too. I like Mark Steel and me liking modern comics is a rarity.
