    Might I suggest, then, that you spell his name correctly? You can fix the thread title if you hit "Edit" then "Advanced".

    You are the type of what the age is searching for, and what it is afraid it has found. I am so glad that you have never done anything, never carved a statue, or painted a picture, or produced anything outside of yourself! Life has been your art. You have set yourself to music. Your days are your sonnets.

    He knew the price of everything but the value of nothing .A right upper class prick ,but that was what he was born into .I still found his programmes interesting ,but it grated me when he always asked how many millions such and such was worth .
    Still he deserves an R.I.P ,and i feel a little sad at his passing .

    Perhaps the condolences forum is best place for an RIP thread.
    Alternatively maybe the celebrity forum.

    Off of the back of our recent feedback thread I think we have decided that after hours is not the place for RIP condolences style threads.

    Death discussion threads yes, but RIP etc., no.
