We should start a new thread for dead people to save starting new ones all the time.

"Sticky for deadies" should do the trick.

A 'name' will die every week, Varche, there are fickin thousands of them from the superstar actor down to the fella from the oxo advert.

Last time I saw Blue Peter John Noakes was still a presenter on it!! I'm one of those who thought he popped off years ago,83 not too shabby an innings though.

Oh NO ! Not the guy from the OXO advert. Very sad R.I.P. He was such a lovely human being.

Yep. Good idea. Watch for "Dead Person" thread, oh ok maybe that's a bit harsh. I need to think
How about "Another R.I P that nobody has heard of"
No ? ok. Maybe "Kicked the Bucket" ?
Hmmmmm " Recently Passed away"
No, I'm heading back to "Dead Person", certainly not ambiguous . . . . .

Sadly,my dad has recently been to his own,just made 90 :'(

A good innings by any measure ;)

'Noaksey' wasn't the only intrepid Blue Peter presenter to climb Nelson's Column, Konnie Huq did it about 30 years later when Health & Safety had taken the adventure and risk out of life.
