The undoubted star of that 1982 tournament, which was one of the best I can recall

RIP Paolo

RIP Paolo :cry:

Great striker, I watched that 82 tournament and he was brilliant.

The Italy v Brazil and Brazil v Argentina games were very good :clap:

She was a staple on British TV when growing up, in addition to the Carry On film roles.

RIP Babs

This is very sad news, indeed.

To call him a mystery, thriller, or spy novelist was to do him a disservice. He was simply a great writer. No other modern writer quite captured the zeitgeist as well as he did. I read everything he ever wrote.

Brilliant writer.
