RIP Peabo.

That’s the song most people will remember him by.

Not a fan of his MOR stuff, apparently there's some proper soul on earlier albums but the MOR stuff like "Celebrate" is nasty..

s**t, great actor. Saw him play, brilliantly, Frank n Furter in the Rocky Horror show, in the West End for the late night showing which is still one of my top 5 memories.. Stunning night, I felt really underdressed in jeans and leather jacket.

Brilliant banter with the audience espcially with the audience taking the piss out of his coffee ads

Very much of its time and an acquired taste but was also funny in Little Britain.

Has the grim reaper missed this one?

One Chelsea player I actually admired.

Bobby Tambling died at the age of 84 after a long illness with dementia.

RIP Bobby

I was a big fan of Buffy and thought he brought some class to anything he starred in.

I used to stroll around the gallery occasionally in my lunch break when I worked in Saltaire. Never really my cup of tea but interesting art. I'm more a Lowry fan. Still, good innings is 88 for a heavy smoker.

I thought his last twenty years work was quite interesting, most of it done on his iPad.
I liked his Yorkshire East Coast throughout the seasons exhibition and his French home stuff from the last couple of years.

Hockney lived in Bridlington with coastal views. We often drive past his house.

RIP David,

64 is far too young!

RIP Kenny.

No doubt there'll be a tribute at Scarborough this weekend where Warwickshire are playing.
