For me these divide into three categories. 1. People I thought were already dead. 2. People I'd never heard of. 3. Keith Chegwin and David Cassidy. |

For me, Brian Cant's death was particularly sad having watched so many of his programmes as a child; i.e. Play Away, Play School, Camberwick Green, Trumpton, etc. There are many who I haven't heard of either but their departures mean something to others. |

I see the Queen was listed. That would have been a capital offence in times past.

I think I've been asleep this year. Brian Cant, John Noakes, Roger Moore, Tom Petty, Sean Hughes I remember hearing about. John Hurt, Graham Taylor, Tara PT, I don't. There's a few I recognise from their photos but didn't know their names, and more I don't recognise at all. Fetch has also lost one of our best this year |

At least two people I know my Dad worked with in the unions in the 60/70s.
