The Duke of Edinburgh. I know that they still wheel him out, but he's clearly a cadaver.

I'd completely forgotten that Keith Chegwin was dead - Cheggers Plays Pop - never again Sad Pete Burns too - he was very odd - but dead? Surely they're both far too young. Corey Haim too - I remember him as a kid in 'The Lost Boys', so young.

I also forget that Ronnie Corbett (I loved The Two Ronnies), Alan Rickman and Bill Paxton. It's so tragic when people die before their time - Bill Paxton was so good looking in 'Aliens' ...

Loads of favourites but disbelieving of George Michael. He had the most beautiful voice.

@Zafferana sadly, I don't think Pete's body could cope with the hundreds of procedures he had. Such a shame he didn't feel as gorgeous on the inside as he was on the outside (in the 80's)

Yes I don't think Richard O'sullivan is dead yet. He was in the papers recently meeting Meghan Markle

Richard O'Sullivan is definitely alive. I wonder if you were thinking of Richard Beckinsale? He was in 70s sitcoms and had a similar hairdo, and died very young.

I often ask DH: "are they still alive?" or "did he die?" Last one was Dale Winton (dead) when he was showing DS "Hole in the Wall".
