Ronnie Radford - ex-footballer and scorer of what I consider to be the best goal ever, especially when you see the extended version where he won possession, then gave a pass and took the return before hitting the ball.

Put some past those goalkeeping angels Ronnie, RIP.

There have been many of that type of goal scored over the years, but if you take a look at the ploughed field of a pitch, then yes, it was a special goal.

RIP Ronnie

With David Niven, two of the best smooth talkers there have been on stage, TV and screen. He'll be chatting up the angels already.

”Ding dong”! I hadn’t realised he was the Sorting Hat voice in Harry Potter. He was a visitor to Whipps Cross when his late mother was in the same ward as my late Aunt, who spoke well of him. R.I.P.

Just heard the sad news. Considering he was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer in 2013, and given about 10 months to live, he managed to do well to make it to 75.

There is a story involving that. He was saved by a cancer specialist fan at Addenbrookes who realises the diagnosis was wrong. Not that it matters now.

Very sad. I've been a big fan of Fleetwood Mac since the 70s and Christine was a very talented lady
