Name a celebrity death you still haven't gotten over?

[OneUmberJoker]

Gary speed

Victoria Wood. Matthew Perry. Whitney Houston. Natasha Richardson. Stephen Gately. Sarah Harding. Liam Payne.
Thankfully still with us but I'll be devastated when we lose Billy Connolly, Dawn French and David Attenborough.

I imagine that we oldies all remember JFK dying, he was the first politician who had such a popular image, the first time I heard the word charisma was during his short Presidency. Had he not been murdered I doubt that Vietnam would have become the American disaster it was. Very frustrating not knowing what really happened to him.

Rik Mayal, Amy Winehouse, Robin Williams, Bob Hoskins

Another one who misses Terry Pratchett. I wanted him to write forever.

Terry pratchett he had so much more to give to us

Liam Payne.

Paul McCartney. Not dead yet, but I've been mourning his future death for a couple of decades already.

Anton Yelchin. Such a tragic accident and at such a young age.

Same ❤️

Freddie Mercury.

Kobe Bryant & his daughter
Diogo Jota
Liam Payne

Yes, 2016. Death had a busy and high profile year.

George Michael, Amy Winehouse and Michael Mosely

And Michael Mosely if not already mentioned. I honestly felt like I lost someone I knew then. I'd followed Fast 800 and all the books, taught me soo much. Such a crazy loss.

Oh yes not forgetting John Lennon and Kirsty McColl

Patricia Routledge recently hit hard. Keeping up appearances was one of those shows you watched as a family together growing up, while your mum made snarky comments about how your gran was hyacinth.

Terry Pratchett as mentioned upthread. Such a very very clever gentleman.

It sounds ridiculous but I always watch older films with animals as the star and feel sad that they will be long gone!

You know what’s weird? Thinking about long-dead people who, in another world, could have still been with us today.

Martin Luther King would be 99, the same age as Sir David Attenborough.
James Dean would be 94.
Elvis would have turned 90.
John Lennon - 85.
Jimmy Hendrix would be 82.
Princess Diana would be 64.
Whitney Houston would be 62.
Heath Ledger would be 46 and Amy Winehouse would be just 42.

Deborah James

Dave myers (hairy bikers). His relationship with Si during filming was so special, and how he also met his lovely wife through his filming.

Same for me. Like an idiot I didn’t see them live because there’d always be another opportunity, until there wasn’t.

Bowie.

Peaches Geldof, cos she was so young and loved her kids so much
River Phoenix.

Tina. Just loved that woman.

Diana

2016 brexit, trump.

Paul Walker

Bowie
