Gone but not forgotten - talent I miss

[MeekSqueak]

I’ve been listening to old episodes of I’m Sorry I Haven’t a Clue on radio four, and oh, I miss Jeremy Hardy.

A funny, talented man gone too soon.

As soon as I read the title (bit before I’d seen I OP) I thought of Jeremy Hardy too @MeekSqueak. He seemed like such a good man - as well as being funny and clever.

George Michael was a fascinating person in addition to being a unique talent. Gone way too soon.
It would have been really interesting to see where Princess Diana landed had she not passed. Frivolous I know, but imagine her Instagram!
Kirsty MacColl. LOVED her.

David Bowie.

Sean Lock

Another one who misses George Michael. I still have this intense feeling he shouldn’t have died, it wasn’t his time. Seems such a tragedy.

Heath Ledger. What a career we’ve missed out on.

Rik Mayall and Sean Lock are the two I miss the most.

Elvis
Sean Lock and most recently Anthony Head

Terry Wogan, particularly his breakfast show on Radio 2.

Prince
David Bowie

Both disruptors and visionaries.

Mark Hollis from Talk Talk. He gave up his career to be a fully present dad to his sons. A clever and talented songwriter and musician.

Sean Lock - funny and brilliant:

George Michael - He wasn’t my thing at all as I was growing up, but he was genuinely talented and a wonderful kind hearted and funny man.

sean Hughes. So dry but wrote some beautiful stuff
George Michael was such a lovely soul and did so much that people had no idea about

Prince, George Michael and Jeff Buckley.

Agree 😔

Dame Maggie Smith for sure, after Downtown Abbey

Amy Winehouse.

Terry wogan

Linda Smith
Mel Smith
Jacqueline du Prés

Victoria Wood still saddens me.
Agree with Mark Hollis. Hugely talented and seemed genuinely lovely.
Rik Mayall 😔

Rik Mayall
Alan Rickman
Victoria Wood
George Michael
Caroline Aherne
All so young
And now Anthony Head 😢

Maeve Binchy she was a great storyteller.
Freddie Mercury the ultimate showman

Victoria wood

Ricky Hatton.

Joyce Grenfell
Dave Allen
Kenny Everett

(showing my age here...)

Agree with all the previous posts, and also showing my age, Richard Beckingsale from Porridge.
