There was a point where his voice had really gone raspy and he didn't look right at all but then he seemed to be ok again afterwards.

Pretty shocking really.
10 Storeys High is still one of the best sitcoms around.
Hopefully 8 Out of 10 Cats does Countdown dies with him.
Oh fuck. That's awful.
Absolutely brutal.
Genuinely gutted about that one. I just assumed he had some sort of cancer when his voice went to shit and his appearance changed, but I also assumed he had beat it.
He had already beaten (skin) cancer before he became a comedian.
That one hurts. 8 out of 10 Cats is never going to be the same again.
Really? So it is, I wonder how long I've been getting that wrong.
Our mate, our friend
In his honour. You all know what to do.
Actually shouted "What?!" at the car radio when it was announced. Didn't know he was ill. Pretty gutted. Favourite comedian by some distance.
I didn't have him down as that old. Finding out he worked with Baddiel and Newman blew my mind.
Charlie Watts.

Curly must be gutted.
I wonder if they will carry on without him? Presumably they will. Jagger must have miles left on the clock yet. And it will no doubt take some sort of extension level event to take out Keith Richards.
They have been shedding members over the years so they definitely will.
Aren't they basically Triggers broom at this point?
Not really, no. They’ve had effectively the same line up since 1975 when Ronnie Wood joined.
Bill Wyman packed it in on bass at some point in the nineties I think and they replaced him with a new guy, who they inexplicably never acknowledge as part of the band even though he’s still with them today.
Other than that they’re basically unchanged for 46 years.
Yeah, but they were already past it by then, so it's the long-standing shit roster.
Never heard of that guy, and going off that story he looked like a corpse/Vincent Price in the late 80s so he's done well to have made it this far.
I've just had a look at Bill Wyman's Wikipedia, had no idea he was a colossal nonce.
Sarah Harding, Girls Aloud singer, 39![]()
Had cancer for a while hasn't she? Pretty shit.
She was a bit of a horrible cunt from what I've heard previously.
Still, 39.
Serious points on offer.
She was the Stockport bike.
What lovely eulogies.
That PSG player in a coma for 39 years has died. Jean-Pierre Adams.
I mean really he died 39 years ago, but let’s not sour today.
I'm a twit
They kept someone in a coma alive for 39 years? Fuck me.
Went in for a routine knee op, get brain damage. Absolute nightmare.

Michael K. Williams.
Oh Indeed.
Police on their way to question Thuliso Dingwall now
He was so majestic in that. Might be the greatest character ever on TV.
Obligatory posting of this scene:
Though I also remember him for this one, in which the Bunk kind of steals the show but I still always think of it as a great face-off between them:

Oof. This hits.![]()
Just finished a rewatch of The Wire. Such a don. Regardless of how often it happens I still find it crazy that somebody in that position can be a heroin addict.
I’m absolutely fucked by this. I have to get clean. Immediately. Im sitting downstairs cause I don’t want to go up to my flat because there’s a gram of coke on the table. But I don’t want to throw it out. I need to get clean. Fuck.
