Celebrity deaths always come in threes

Dora Bryan dies at 91

Saw a pic last night telling a story about her

Bloke was in Borders in London and saw her
"Can I have an autograph"
"What's my name?"
Excuse me?
I said what's my name?
Dora Bryan...
Yes, I'll sign for you. I wouldn't have if you'd been another who said 'Thora Hird'"

Celebrity chef Ross Burden - star of MasterChef and Ready Steady Cook - dies aged 45 following battle with cancer.

Younger than me and I didn't know he'd been ill.

I think you'll find his real name was Mr Takagi and he died when Alan Rickman shot him after he said "You'll just have to shoot me" and Rickman said "OK" without moving his lips as usual. Best movie villain ever. His epitaph from Rickman/Gruber

I wanted this to be professional, efficient, adult, cooperative. Not a lot to ask. Alas, your Mr. Takagi did not see it that way... so he won't be joining us for the rest of his life.

Mike Smith, the Tony Gubba of children's broadcasting and not the best helicopter pilot in the world, aged 59

Robin Williams, apparently suicide, 63.

A whale in terms of celebrity

Yeah that's a proper one bert and lauran bacall

Joan Rivers - Can We Talk?

Not any more, love...

Patent landed today

Ian Paisley, graduate of the Bob Jones university and a man whose posture meant that his belt buckle entered the room two seconds before his head and an hour after his voice, which would also be last to leave.

Donald Sinden, aged 236, finally succumbed. On the day he died, he did so knowing he was never England's greatest living actor.

Jim Brannan out of Eastenders. Real name John Bardon, he joined the Eastenders cast as Carol's hugely racist dad. Subsequently, scriptwriters decided to give him a best mate who was black (Rudi Walker) and hope no-one would remember. The pricks.

Joe Cocker

I doubt you'll get two celebrities in succession as revered as Richie Benaud

Apropos of nothing, I wasn't aware until in the last week or so that Billie Whitelaw was married to Peter Vaughan (Harry Grout, mentioned on the DOA thread)

Did you know that Tony Greig was born on Richie Benaud's 16th birthday?

I didn't, Tone. He was also born in South Africa, died in Australia and because of his Scottish father played for England. Suck on that, Spike Milligan...

James Last and Ron Moody in the last 24 hours.....one to come.

Right on cue, Christopher Lee!
All three gone in 36 hours.

Someone set the dial to "60s and 70s faces", Tone.
