Given how long Sooty has worked with him I’m surprised he has said nothing about this.......

 

He used to talk quite normally until the day Corbett Snr's hand first went where it shouldn't have. Now all he can do is whisper into a police victim support officer's ear. It's all very sad, really.

State of Indeepindanse.

 

With apologies to Donna Summer and Camille Saint-Saëns.

A vegetative state?

iirc his early TV retirement was due to a longstanding health issue (MS? Parkinsons?) that would be problematic with covid, but I can't find what it was from a cursory Google glance.

 

 

He battled leukemia - but parted from Sooty 23 years ago. Long story after that as Sooty fell into the hands of an investment company who then sold out the interests to the people who managed a range of British child-friendly brands - like Thomas the Tank Engine. The Sooty company was asset stripped to the point their own rehearsal studios were sold off and Sooty and his pals went into a bigger stable which then lost a ton of cash on a Thomas Tank movie, eventually opening the way to an employee buy-out that put Sooty's business (literally) back in the hand that was also up his arse - presenter Richard Cadell, who bears a passing resemblance to Matthew Corbett. 

 

The high profile days, however, might take some reclaiming - the current (postponed) tour dates include the vast urban conurbations of Orsett and Selsey.

Tea Party goon Herman Cain hospitalized with coronavirus

If he didn't had children, he would be a candidate for a Darwin award. Attending a rally for Trump, knowing full well AS A DOCTOR that this virus was everywhere.  Hope the fucker suffers, he deserves it.

Chiu Chuang-huan might be another for the list - we've been told he died of pneumonia, a known side effect of the virus.

 

But for all my bloody luck, he probably just had pneumonia.

He had normal pneumonia in early February, was discharged but never fully recovered. Not COVID.

Nick Cordero is now free of the virus but probably needs a double lung transplant, after he already lost a leg:

Or Nick Cordero could just die: https://www.showbiz411.com/2020/07/05/reports-rip-nick-cordero-tony-nominated-broadway-star-who-spent-91-days-in-hospital-with-covid

Honestly it’s a bit relieving to see him go. His quality of life would’ve been pretty bad had he lived. Definitely no way to go at all. RIP to him.

All terribly exciting, the death deniers are out in force.

 

Source seems to have been a blue tick Twitter poster.

 

I guess I'll wake up and find out in a few hours.
