John Hume, Nobel Peace Prize winner.
Along with Gerry Adams and Martin McGuinness, he did so much to advance the peace process in Northern Ireland.

Re: Births Deaths And Marriages
Not only was Hume instrumental in getting Sinn Fein to sit down and negotiate, but he knew what he did almost certainly cost his SDLP party votes and seats. Not enough principled politicians around like that, across the board.

Re: Births Deaths And Marriages
Ben Cross, who played Harold Abrahams in "Chariots of Fire", has died aged 72. I never tire of watching that film and his superb performance.

He also played Andrew Manson in the excellent 1980s dramatisation of AJ Cronin's "The Citadel", which has been credited with having some influence on the creation of the NHS.
"If I can't win, I won't run!"
RIP.

Re: Births Deaths And Marriages
Poor Victor.
I recall one story when he was a bit younger, and he walked into a bar.
Victor asked the bartender for "gin and.......... tonic". "Of course," said the bartender, "but what's up with the pause?"
Victor just held up his paws and said "I dont know, I was just born with them!"
Classic Victor. RIP.

Re: Births Deaths And Marriages
David Bryant, former Bowls world champion, dies at 88.
About the first bowls player I ever recognised, with his iconic pipe in mouth, think he still used to keep the pipe despite not being allowed to light it while playing.
RIP
