belated RIP. A receding hair line and the original master of the delicate but deadly near post flick on - as well as a goalscorer in his own right. Our own Peter Noble (who died only last year) followed in those footsteps not long after and was to play against him for Burnley against Spurs. |

Man. Used to be a big part of the Attitude Era. Grandmaster Sexay and Scotty Too Hotty with Rikishi.
I was very pleased to find out that they actually re-formed as recently as 2015. Unfortunately minus Scotty's trademark bleached blond hair. |

Bernard Hepton, I recognise his face more than his name, was in Colditz, Bergerac and lots more 70s and 80s TV stuff.

Very sad news for family and friends of course and a loss to the entertainment industry, though at my age they kind of missed my radar. Having said all that 73 does not seem old in this day and age.

Ajit Wadekar... you'll need to be an old cricket fan to get this, but I loved that 71 side of which he was captain. First Indian side to win a Test in England, they'd been trying since 1932.
The victory won the series, India got rescued by rain in the 2nd Test, England perhaps in the first... what I particularly liked was the use of spin bowlers, couple of all rounders Solkar and Abid Ali saw off the shine, then it was Venkat, Chandra and Bishen Bedi for the rest of the day.
John Snow got banned in that series.... Stokes makes him look like a vicar's son
