Haydn Gwynne dying at 66 sucks.

She was amazing as camilla

Yeah, that's gutting. Had a proper crush on her when I started out working in a news agency in the early 90s and was an avid watcher of Drop The Dead Donkey.

"Nice work", with her and Warren Clarke, was fun.

Sir Bobby Charlton, 86

RIP Sir Bobby, a sad day for football

I was trying to remember the name of that one when I heard she’d passed. It was great.

Self described gangster David Courtney

Who by allegedly burning down a nightclub in deptford, got me my first job in archaeology.

He was one of the local villains when I was growing up. Used to see him driving around in his blue Jag. Pulled up next to him once in my dad’s hotrod and he gave us a thumbs up!

His house was and still is a tourist attraction :)

Chestnut Rise is still closed off today with police guards. To call it a tourist attraction is a bit of a stretch though.

RIP Big Vern
