RIPs

I find the passing of Kenny Baker just incredibly sad. He lived a long full life by all accounts.  This fucking year.

Big shits.
Just massive.
Rest in peace Kenny.

Met Kenny and his wife just the once at a tiny con in 1999, chatted briefly about Time Bandits and his friendship with Bryan Talbot, and he signed my copy of Heart of Empire (and an R2 figure, naturally). He was cheery and engaged, despite dealing with feck knows how many worshipful spodes in a row: a pure gentleman. It remains my fondest 'celebrity' encounter. RIP, Sir Kenny.

Blimey, from one taser round? Thats shocking, reports say it was for his own safety as well, wonder what the story is here.

Reports say he was in a drunken rage so  police tried to subdue him. Doubt they new he would have a dicky heart.

Gilli Smyth of Gong - a year or so after Daevid. We saw them play together in 2013 and even the two of them having a spot of food in the pub beforehand. Despite their relatively advanced ages I would've never have dreamt only a few years later they'd both be gone
