Terry O'Neill, British photographer, 81.
If you saw an iconic photo from the 1960's, there a good chance that Terry O'Neill took it.

Remember Clive James's programmes showing to us to our astonishment and ridicule the Japanese show based on humiliating the participants. It shows how far our telly has sunk now we are showing the same kind of crap as mainstream entertainment.

Clive James going on 10 years after he was expecting to die just so he could wryly taunt death itself is perfect. A great loss

Not famous but a woman who worked in the local bookies. Well known here in Bell Green. Good turn out for her funeral.

I've just realised. No bugger on SBT will know when I've snuffed out when I eventually do (3 years ago today since my 4th heart attack!). My missus doesn't lurk about on here and nor do any of my kids, so fuck it, I'll just say farewell now, and hope to see you all in hell very soon! x x x x

There's people who used to post on here all the time that just suddenly stopped. Who knows if they'd just had enough or are no longer with us.

I'm a member of a webpage that deals with, let's say "adult humour", and there was a well known member that announced he had been diagnosed with terminal cancer. He kept up the humorous posts for quite some time until there was no more from him. His wife came onto the group to let us know he had sadly passed away. I didn't know him personally, and nor did 99% of the other posters but it was a very solemn day when we all learned of his passing.

On the window round today a customer said after I cleaned her windows that she'd give me the Christmas tip. I replied I'll be round again before Xmas so not to bother just yet. She then said that none of us are getting younger, and we could die tomorrow, so best take it now ! She's only in her fifties, but I admire her outlook on life !

Anyone remember the magician/comedian Tommy Cooper?
He used to crack the joke that his next trick was so dangerous that could he have his applause beforehand in case he died performing it.

My step dad had even more. He ended up with stents inside stents. He succumbed to a stroke in the end.

I think he collapsed and died on stage. They said that's the way he'd have liked to go.

I remember it well. Everyone thought it was a part of his act. It was only when he didn't move for a fair bit of time that they realised it was serious.

Everyone was laughing. It just went together like one of his normal gags. You just never knew with him. He was a very good magician but even better at getting it wrong. So you always expected things to go wrong.

They do say it's incredibly difficult to be good at something and then try and do it badly convincingly cos you just look like someone who is deliberately trying to do it badly rather than someone trying to do it well. I think the same was said of Les Dawson and his piano playing.

Just heard this. One of my sports heroes. I remember seeing him play for Warwickshire at Lockhurst Lane and having to step over boundary rope and into the pavilion area to start his run up

He was a bit before my time but being a watcher of cricket in the mid to late eighties I saw a lot of the highlights of earlier tests during rain delays on bbc2?

Can't stand cricket but I know the name. I also liked him in the Die Hard movies.
