Kevin Beattie. Former Ipswich and England
Only 64, that's no age. Living in East Anglia i grew up with "Match of the Week" on Anglia TV every Sunday afternoon, and it was generally Norwich or Ipswich shown, with the odd visit to Cambridge, Colechester etc. This was the time of Bobby Robson in charge of Ipswich and they had a great team then. RIP Kevin. |

Enzo Calzaghe  What a partnership him and Joe were, also trained a couple of other world champions too. Great character and would recommend anyone who hasn’t seen the Calzaghe documentary to watch it. |

From the station at Colchester
To the cells of Warrington
From the services at Leicester
To the slums of Northampton
We travel over England
And one day Europe too
Cos we all follow the Swindon
We're the famous Town End crew.

That's sad news.
Watched Chas & Dave on Jools Holland back in June and he looked well.
I think they were touring at that moment as well.

John Cunliffe, who was the fella who created Postman Pat has passed away... something so simple, which must have brought joy and happiness to many kids as they grew up.. and a few adults too...

My kids adored Postman Pat when they were small. As you say Reg, such a simple and innocent format. I knew one of the videos off by heart once 😊
