My mum loved him back in the 70s, so we saw a lot of the fella on telly. He had a great way with a look.
Said on the BBC that it was unconfirmed, so best hang on with the mourning.

It’s been a bad week. First Roger Moore, then Joe Cocker, now Freddie.

No RIP for poor Richard Hammond, though.

The chancellor is dead? It seemed he was the only one on the front bench who wasn't.

Didn't he get a bit Project Yewtree, or am I misremembering?

Are we allowed to have liked him?

No, because paedophiles are a "pet hate" of his.

Personally my pet hate is people not using headphones on public transport, but I guess we all have those tiny irrational annoyances that grate us so badly.

He was never charged, but the judge at the libel hearing said emphatically Karin Ward was telling the truth. (Different burdens of proof.)

Other Girls at Duncroft at the time think Karin Ward's account is dubious:

So who knows.
