Max Bygraves. 89.

He was the Plan B and Pro Green of the Fifties.

[Dark Jimbo]

Aw jeez. I'm from the wrong era to really know who he was, but I was at college with his grandson around the same time I started reading 2000AD - lovely guy, an amiable stoner who was ambling his way through life killing time until he turned 21 and inherited his chunk of the Bygraves millions.

[The Doctor Alt 8]

Max Bygraves. 89.

I hadn't heard that

[Frank]

Hal David, writing partner of Burt Bacharach on too many great songs for anyone to list without missing an absolute classic. They include the best James Bond song ever recorded, I Say A Little Prayer, and Walk On By.

I suspect my dad liked Max Bygraves. I bet there's a record of his in our attic.

Hal David - so many wonderful songs, whatever my opinions of the people who sang them.  Pure quality.

[Goaty]

Thank you Michael for the Green Mile. Rest in peace.

Thank you Michael for the Green Mile. Rest in peace.

Agreed R.I.P

[SmallBlueThing]

That is just bloody awful. MCD was fantastic- from the green mile to his kingpin in daredevil to his gorilla commander in the planet of the apes remake, he was an absolute star. What a terrible thing to happen to an actor who really did enliven whatever he was in. He'll be sorely missed.

R.I.P MCD you brilliant, brilliant man.

[Misanthrope]

What a damn shame.

R.I.P big fella.
