Oh no, they've died!

[Yudster]

Gold to gold in 60 seconds or less - oh no. We should all get together and do a commemorative Blockbusters Hand Jive in memoriam.

He used to be a radio one DJ apparantely

[English Bob]

Someone over at b3ta.com came up with this nice tribute image. RIP Bob!

I also heard he was the 1st radio James Bond.

R I P very sad news

[CassieJackson]

And lets not forget the urban myth that he played the saxophone on Baker Street. I can't believe it. It was only on Wednesday that Jackson Junior and I were watching an old episode of Blockbusters on satellite and I was telling her about "I'll have a P please Bob".

RIP Bob Holness.

They have been running Blockbusters on Challenge tv for a few weeks now.

Such a gentleman.

[Johnny 1989]

Bit late on this but I was rather sad to hear of Bob's passing, some of my early childhood television memories were of watching Blockbusters on Thames, shame all the gameshows now have to have "celebrities" or the concept of greed as the main aim to the game.

Soul singer Etta James died yesterday, another remarkable voice sadly passed away

Oh man, I knew about Etta James and forgot to post here. She was amazing, very sad.

He was. That much is fact.
What I can't say as fact (but I'm pretty sure it's right) is the story was Casino royale and it was 1953.

According to the interwebs, Whitney Houston has died. Didn't see that one coming.

What? Now I know I'm staying awake for too late for far too long.

Oh no oh no oh no. She has been in a mess for years so its not surprising I suppose, but oh no anyway. What a woman, what a voice what a performer. Bobby Brown you have a LOT to answer for - you found an honest, humble, relatively sheltered woman with strong principles and good values and you turned her into a desperate junkie you BASTARD.

Sorry. I'm really upset, I loved her.

[Nicola_Red]

My mum always listened to her stuff when I was a kid too. So sad.

[Munki Bhoy]

Another sad but unsurprising death. What a waste. RIP.

I thought he died ages ago until i saw him in that film Stardust with Robert De Niro a few years ago.

That's all I know him from, I liked the guard's role. It might not be 'cool' to like Stardust, but it's an ace film.

I'm old enough to remember as a kid watching him in 'Me Mammy' with Milo O'Shea, who is still alive!

Ask your grandparents.

He was also the one armed waiter in Robins Nest and was in the film Mean Machine.

Comedian Frank Carson has died aged 85.

Oh no. Not that I found him funny, but many did and he represented his genre in his time as well as anyone and better than most.
