not a celebrity

For sure. Could have been in his 80s if you went on appearance

I tend to agree and have edited the thread title accordingly. Some of the no marks included this year is beyond a joke.

The man played on Top of the Pops pal. Show some respect.

Seemed to have been a bit of a tortured soul by the looks of it

Thats not a very complimentary piece. Not your normal obituary anyway. Tough reading in parts.

Probably better remember this guy
