    Strange man but came across harmless.

    Very strange but always seemed like a genuinely nice person and was inadvertently behind one of the funniest moments I've ever witnessed in reality TV.

    Didn't know much about him until seeing him on BB this year (don't judge me:P). Very funny and witty guy, decent soul. He was sick a lot during the show and left due to illness. RIP

    62 and found dead? Well was he ill? Police say they are not treating it as "suspicious" .... so that rules out foul play but was it suicide. 62 is exceedingly young for a man who I don't believe had any kind of substance abuse problems

    He left BB due to illness, may be a natural succumbing to it.

    I recognise the guys face and heard from my friend about BB - don't know of him much. Hope it was not too painful with friends/family near.

    Sad, he was an eccentric but interesting and funny man.

    While he wasn't directly involved, the mix-up in Celebrity Big Brother surrounding his supposed death was one of the funniest moments I've ever seen on TV!

    I think he lived fairly hard during his younger years. These things have a way of catching up with you.

    What about Bowie, though? He's still OK, right?

    Ah, that's sad. He's one of those people who I didn't expect or want to like, but found his surreal sense of humour strangely endearing.

    Right now, somebody is probably trying to explain to poor old Tiffany that David Gest is dead, but she's smugly saying "actually, I think you'll find it's David Bowie..."

    A bit ironic that he was going on tour which was called

    "David Gest Is Not Dead But Alive With Soul"

    The CBB moment was very funny

    RIP

    Ah, that's sad. RIP. Loved him on 'I'm A Celeb'.

    Thoughts, of course, with Vaginica Semen.
