A point for me, as Pike gets an obit in the latest Private Eye.

R.I.P. ex-cricketer Mike Proctor.
He may have been a doctor.....

[steveqpr881]

White City, BBC......they've all got a local connection today.

& from one extreme to another, R.I.P. "Titch" out of Dave Dee, Dozy etc,
Real name Ian Amey - I bet you never knew that!

[Kerrins]

Did not know that "titch"real name was Ian Amery. Always liked the Group and their records.

Hold tight

kerrins, I recently saw a poster advertising one of those 60s groups tours;
lots of bands on it, including Dozy, Beaky Mick & Titch (i.e., no Dave Dee);
yet Titch's obit said that 1 or 2 of the others were also dead - so I wonder who
took their place in the line-up??

[Kerrins]

Steveqpr 881. I reckon Dave Dee is Dead. I think he was one of the first of the group to become deceased.

[steveqpr881]

Bit of a backlog to get through:
R.I.P. ex-footballer Chris Nicholl ( Saints, Villa & Norn Iron); comic Richard Lewis &
'hairy biker' Dave Myers.

[steveqpr881]

R.I.P. Thomas Kingston.... bound to get in the Telegraph.

Sure enough, he was in yesterday's Telegraph.
As was Chris Nicholl.
2 points to me.

The world of music says goodbye to singer-songwriter Eric Carmen,
& Karl Wallinger of World Party. Their biggest hit was 'Message in a box' -
now it's Karl who'll be in a box.
