Gav Posted January 21, 2022 Posted January 21, 2022 (edited) Meat Loaf - RIP. Edited January 21, 2022 by Gav 1 Quote
JC4LAB Posted January 21, 2022 Posted January 21, 2022 The singer from Budgie too..We lose two more greats Quote
Armchair supporter supremo Posted January 21, 2022 Posted January 21, 2022 Loved Meatloaf, got to see him a few times and he always put on a great show, one of the few records that was played very regularly in our home growing up. We're now seriously running out of true living music legends and icons 😞 (and yet kieth Richards is still knockin about 🙌🙌😅) Quote
Gav Posted January 21, 2022 Posted January 21, 2022 (edited) Could be my favourite MeatLoaf track Edited January 21, 2022 by Gav Quote
only2garners Posted January 27, 2022 Posted January 27, 2022 Barry Cryer dies at the age of 86. He wrote jokes for a string of comedy greats but most memorable for me as a stalwart on I'm Sorry I haven't a Clue. He'll have had his tea......... 2 Quote
Backroom Mike E Posted January 27, 2022 Backroom Posted January 27, 2022 "A man drives down a country lane and runs over a cockerel. He knocks at a nearby farmhouse door and a woman answers. "'I appear to have killed your cockerel,' he says. 'I'd like to replace it.' The woman replies: 'Please yourself - the hens are round the back.'" Quote
Backroom Mike E Posted January 27, 2022 Backroom Posted January 27, 2022 Two nuns are driving down a dark road, when Dracula jumps onto their car. One nun says to the other "Quick, show him your cross! Show him your cross!" The nun shouts "Get off my bloody bonnet!" 1 Quote
Backroom Mike E Posted January 27, 2022 Backroom Posted January 27, 2022 I love my comedy, and Barry's death has really upset me. A fantastically kind man too. Contrary to the stereotype, he did buy me a drink once. 2 Quote
only2garners Posted January 27, 2022 Posted January 27, 2022 A woman walks into a pet shop. "I would like to buy that parrot you have in the window. How much is it?" "£5 madam." "£5! That's cheap. What's wrong with it?" "Well, it used to live in a brothel so I'm afraid it knows quite a lot of bad language". The woman thinks about it for a while and then says, "well, for £5 I'll take it". She gets it home and takes the cover off the cage. The parrot immediately says "You're new, a bit old but quite good looking". Her daughter comes in and the parrot says "You're new as well, very nice, you'll do well". Her husband walks in and the parrot says "Hello again Derek". 3 Quote

jim mk2 Posted January 27, 2022 Posted January 27, 2022 "Politicians are like nappies, they should be changed frequently. And for the same reason." RIP Barry Cryer 1 Quote

Backroom Mike E Posted January 27, 2022 Backroom Posted January 27, 2022 Very typical of Barry, apparently he'd been joking for the last week or so that 'I don't know how long I've got left, I don't dare buy a green banana.' 2 Quote
oldjamfan1 Posted February 21, 2022 Posted February 21, 2022 (edited) RIP Jamal Edwards - who has died at the tender age of 31. Perhaps not well known to most of this forum but in the world of Grime and Rap it is the equivalent of losing someone like Bowie or Lennon. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-60457063 Edited February 21, 2022 by oldjamfan1 1 Quote

oldjamfan1 Posted April 4, 2022 Posted April 4, 2022 RIP June Brown, aka Dot Cotton, at the grand old age of 95. Very rare that nobody has a bad word to say about someone, but literally everybody says she was an amazing woman and a fierce defender of civil liberties, as well as a fine actress. 1 Quote

That's awful news Tony, and no doubt her health wasn't helped by the reporting of her daughter's brutal killer's imp[ending release after serving a 5 minute sentence. 2 Quote

I remember watching the trial updates every day Andy and seeing what those horrible little t***s did subsequent documentaries left a profound impression on me about intolerance and hate. I recall Mrs Lancaster saying she thought they did it because they were jealous as Sophie and her boyfriend were different, not the cloned, tracksuited, baseball cap wearing her killers were. Quote
