Keith Chegwin is dead

[Sea Star]

I nearly ran him over on my bike once - he managed to jump out of the way just in time!

 

[ruffneck23]

RIP Cheggers , too young

 

[elbows]

Also something of an internet pioneer, having done his own 'tv show' on the web in 2000. I remember hearing about it but I might only have watched it for a minute at the time.

I didn't realise he was a child 'star' too - oh god the following is so 1970's!

 

[Nanker Phelge]

...and he was Junior Robin Hood

 

[StoneRoad]

another one gone far too soon

Ha ha, that Betcha! video I posted was all about cycling safely!

He always seemed so full of life and enthusiastic, a shame. One of my fave cds (great source of awfulness and inspiration Siouxsie )

 

[Siouxsie]

He came across as a really lovely man.
Poor Janice and the rest of his family.
RIP Keith x

I wouldn't have thought you needed any inspiration with your awful song choices .....look at Yes!

 

[blossie33]

Oh, that's sad he seemed like a really nice guy.
RIP

He put up with Noel Edmonds - he is now in a better place. RIP Cheggers.

Sad news , liked Cheggers

 

[Orang Utan]

and Noel Edmonds still walks the earth

 

[hash tag]

He died of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis!
this is something I only heard of last week when a client told me he had it

 

[Sprocket.]

Always seemed a likeable bloke.
Awful disease, very sad loss, no age.
RIP Cheggers.

He was a decent fella. I was on Big Breakfast once (performing as Papa Smurf) and he was a right nice bloke.

Who'd've thought then that Papa Smurf would outlive Cheers?

Papa Smurf lives forever

I thought you looked familiar ...

and yeah, RIP Cheggers.

The blue skin is a giveaway

 

[keybored]

I best remember him breaking down in tears on some chat show (Richard and Judy?) in the early 90s, discussing his alcoholism.

"You have one drink... then another one... then another one... (cries)"

Uncomfortable viewing and I felt for him, he seemed like a genuine guy. RIP Cheggers.

 

[dessiato]

He always seemed decent. A B+ list star. RIP

Legend indeed

Bizarre thing to focus on. Would you comment on the size of a woman’s tits on a rip thread?
Or any other time?

Yeah. Did Lola Ferrari get an RIP thread? If so I would have commented on her breasts.

 

[xenon]

RIP Cheggers.

Maybe when you die we’ll all give you a quick nosh at the wake and discuss it over the finger buffer.

Ehrm, yeah, OK then.

 

[Knotted]

RIP. This was good:

 

[William of Walworth]

And he basked a little bit in the reflected glory of his much cooler sister.

I didn't understand this until I read this Keith Chegwin obituary just now ...
