A notable absence from this thread...

So controversial no one dare mention him?

Even after some of that vitriol when Maggie popped off?

I won't miss him.

He who shall not be named.

Whenever I'm doing an impression of a French politician, I always start with 'Jamais, Jamais.....'. Some thing must just sink into your psyche at an early age.

Never! never! never! Do they do power-sharing in Paradise? Oxymoron, surely?

I know Eastenders is crap but I didn't realise Jim Branning was that controversial.  ;)

Less well known, and in a slightly different part of Patagonia, a friend of mine - Liz Daley - was also taken by a big avalanche. Chamonix is a sombre place today.

Forewarned is seldom forearmed. Andreas prepared us that his intense life could well be short. I don't feel particularly forearmed though.

A gentle giant, and a great thinker on risk is gone.

He once explained to his parents that he was highly unlikely to survive them. It is his family I particularly think on now.

Alvin Stardust.

I remember my younger sister getting a Teddy from him, on stage at a Panto, at some point in the '70s; which she still has and is known as "Stardust".

He must be the only Pop star / Entertainer from that era to NOT be part of the Yewtree enquiry...

Possibly not part of...

I noticed that. A shame, it was them doing the soundtrack to Risky Business in the 80s that first interested me in electronic / ambient music. I still rate Love on a Real Train as a great tune.

From there I got the cassette of Poland / The Warsaw Concert. Which was on permanent repeat while studing for exams until it snapped.



RIP.

I'm pleased to note UKB's utter indifference to the passing of Soap Stars and Politicians. Good work.
