Hilda who made Flying Ducks and Murials cultural icons

Such a shame for sure. A very talented and all-round Actress. She will be remembered by a lot of people. 

May she Rest in Peace.

I liked Jean Alexander. Don't remember her in Coronation Street as I've never watched it, but as Auntie Wainwright in Last of the Summer Wine she was brilliant

Pete Burns

When he first appeared on the scene as front man for the band 'Dead or Alive'

Guys hated Him, He was just too good looking, what chance did mere mortals have

But inside His head, He thought he was ugly

Strange world we live in, and the inside workings of the Human brain, seems be be the strangest place of all.

I loved Bobby Vee, a true International star and yet I never heard one word about his parting on the TV - only the teletext.

We went to see him at Butlins roughly 12 years ago.  It was nice that I got to see him in a dance hall so I could have a slowy with OH whilst Bobby sang 'More Than I Can Say'.

R.I.P. Bobby Vee
