YoungWillz 21,050 Posted June 19, 2017 I think I picked him for something, probably my personal list. Along with Noakes, this is a hard year for me to take, despite the correct predictions. (Dr Who as well, wasn't he?) RIP. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Vinegar Tits 606 Posted June 20, 2017 Terribly sad news. He was a legend for anyone of a certain age, and such a huge part of childhood for many of us. They don't 'em like that any more 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gcreptile 10,972 Posted June 20, 2017 Lately, I wonder if the UK is suffering especially heavy losses compared to other countries. And then I wonder if that's caused by, and that's another theory, the high celebrity-per-capita ratio in the UK. I'd argue that no other country on Earth has so many celebrities per capita as the UK. You have the whole nobility. And you guys also invented pop culture as we know it. But even beyond that, I think no major german newspaper would write an obit for an ex-bishop like the Telegraph did for Michael Perham. Or maybe it's just perception bias because of this forum.
