Parkinson was part of youth culture? Really?
Not what was implied or said for that matter. When a kid, you had a small amount of MSM to be exposed to, which was probably a good thing as it made sorting wheat from chaff easier. It didn't take much working out about the vacuosity of celebrity and US style chat shows. When Parkinson got set upon by Rod Hull's emu was decent, mind

Rabbi Lionel Blue
Very sad about this, but he'd been ill for a while.

Gutted about Lionel Blue, he was about the only Thought for the Day speaker that didn't have me reaching for the off button. Genuinely surprised to find out he was gay too. "Morning John, Morning Sue, Morning everyone". He was like a reverse Waltons

Doesn't look good for Carrie Fisher. I only watched her on 8 out of 10 cats the other night' first time I'd seen her in 25 years, got a right shock.

I saw her this summer in a Tesco in Mayfair, she was buying cigarettes and kinder eggs.

Fairly legitimate sources reporting George Michael at 53 but that seems like the most likely fake story for Last Christmas puns imaginable. So assuming fake for now...
