DCI Frank Burnside 3,887 Posted April 25, 2023 Sky and BBC slow off the mark with a notification. Nothing yet for me but have gotten a CNN which is usually one of the last to come in 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Summer in Transylvania 2,173 Posted April 25, 2023 Rest in Peace Harry. It may be worth noting, if it hasn't been already, that he died of Heart Failure, the same thing his friend Sidney "Potter" Poitier died of. By complete coincidence, I was discussing the above mentioned Only Fools and Horses sketch with a friend earlier today, completely oblivious to the fact that Belafonte had died. I was discussing that same sketch with that same friend the day Poitier's death was announced. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
