Really loved 15 to 1 (in original form) and William G Stewarts straight edge but cheeky presenting style had a lot to do with that.
I love quiz shows (as opposed to game shows) - 15 to 1, University Challenge, and anything else where they stick to challenging questions that aren't fixated on sports, 'celeb' culture and soap operas.

Super horrified to hear the news of the loss of the great Charles Bradley. We saw him at Glastonbury three years ago - I knew we'd enjoy the Daptone Records Super Soul Revue but seeing Bradley in the flesh blew us away. The rain was getting more and more intense during his set and during an extended instrumental he leapt from the stage to the front of the crowd where he stood and got soaked with us. The band were becoming increasingly strained as they wanted to pick up the song where it had left off but Bradley wouldn't clamber back until the gloriously named Daptone compere Mr Binky Griptite changed places with him. A pleasure and an honour to see him live. What a performer.

I am, unfortunately almost completely ignorant of Charles Bradley, apart from his performance in Luke Cage- which was instrumental in my purchase of the soundtrack.

A superb vocal performance.

I didn't know any of the back story but I saw him supporting Afghan Whigs a couple of years ago and he was, indeed, a terrific live act. RIP.
We never really die.

It's all right, that's in every contract.
That's what they call a sanity clause.
You can't fool me, there ain't no sanity clause.

So sad to hear of Tom Petty's passing. Such a great musician and songwriter.  :'( :'( :'(
The Justice department has a good re-education programme-it's called five to ten in the cubes.

His family has now said he has passed away.

Very sad about Tom Petty. At his best a fantastic musician.
