You will forigve the slight tangent as I let you watch Shakin' Stevens put Richard Madeley in a headlock. It won't be the last time I post this.

Well quite, that's why I was curious: Whether there's any basis whatsoever to the reaction I've seen to his death, or if we're just going 'child rape lol' everytime a celebrity from the 80s with a tan dies now.

The latter. They were all pretty much the same anyway.

They were all paedos?

Not necessarily, but they were all compromised by their involvement in a pretty sick industry.

Love that end bit about Gazza. 'I tried calling him today, but his mobile's off'. Total Partridge.

Maybe it's just me, but I really don't see why references to fisting (a pretty obvious thing to joke about, considering where a ventriloquist's hand goes) are automatically assumed to be about a nonconsensual act.

Eddy Grant was on fairly recently and when he finished his tune, Madeley shouted "I WISH I WAS BLACK!" across the studio. It has to turn up somewhere.
