You have to produce a copy of the death certificate where I work in order to be paid, that's an awkward question to ask I can tell you
Clothes aren’t compulsory in the privacy of your own home, or do you work in a naturist resort?
He was part of a band that was heavily commercialised, which whether they were good or not, sells well. Their first song "what makes you beautiful" appealed to insecure girls, Simon Cowel played a blinder with that one.
It genuinely is a sad event, his age will ultimately play a huge part in the story and it's "sadness". I completely agree though the media coverage is OTT.
Comparing them with the Beatles though isn't even worth the discussion, different time and era and legacy. The Wanted were huge for a couple of years, but now everyone goes "oh yeah" and 1D will be the same I imagine, except to people who were 10 years or more old when they were about.
Yes I do, your point?
It wasn't to do with members passing away, more the level of success/fan base.
Can't remember, bit different as the fella was terminally ill.
Welcome to the forum btw
Not in great health for a while - performed in a wheelchair.
The first two albums were very good. They just did not have the commercial appeal the band craved. He did not have the vocal range so got the boot.

Ron Ely - Tarzan. Apparently passed last month, but news seems to have only just made it out of the jungle.

He seemed to rate him as a decent, fair, PC - which probably means he'd normally only clout you if you actually asked for it.
A proper Copper, sounds like PC Joe O' Brien who served the Binley and Willenhall community
There were a few about. Ours was a good lad back in the sixties. If you heard his Velocette LE coming you stopped what you were up to though.A proper Copper, sounds like PC Joe O' Brien who served the Binley and Willenhall community
A particular well-known Leicester Tigers back row was a nasty fucker in the eighties. Another mate of mine, who had just signed up to be 'Special' described a night when they were on patrol in Lutterworth, and he (the PC) spotted a target, leapt out of the car, dragged said mark into a doorway, and beat the crap out of him.
My mate, who was too nice the be associated with that shit, was told to keep it shut if he knew what was good for him.
Arsehole.
For those of a certain age Trevor Whymark 74 RIP suffered from that terrible disease Alzheimer's.
Old school Irish copper. Tragically lost his life on the road bridge on Willenhall lane.A proper Copper, sounds like PC Joe O' Brien who served the Binley and Willenhall community
Worked with the best for many ,many years Sinatra is the one I remember younger people remember him best for producing "Thriller " and "Off the wall".
He was very good a solving crimes in those days. You’d have thought he would have clocked on to Michael Jackson a bit earlier wouldnt you.
If anyone has time there's an interview with him in GQ Magazine from 2018, highly recommended
