RIP.

Just reading, his father died on the day of his Bar-Mitzvah and he found his mother dead from a drug overdose.

Talk about tragedy.

Loved an auld episode of supermarket Sweep when I was pulling a sicky from school.
He was before his time with the tan, you could say he inspired a whole generation of women (and pouty mirror loving men) to be as orange as possible.
Seemed like a decent stick, very young at 62. RIP.

Poor Dale Winton. I ll never forget Paul O Gradys joke when Dale was due to marry Nell McAndrew for a TV show. -Dale getting married, have you ever heard anything so ridiculous? I mean, hows Dale Winton gonna get a fanny up his arse

MikeyTaylor

Thought it was a hoax but then Googled it. Very sorry to hear this news.

hotamatua

I was thinking that myself.

Postgrad10

There's was a death hoax for William Roche (Ken Barlow from Corrie) so I though this was another. Loved bring on the wall. Was talking about it should be brought back this week.

Yeah i used to do the same, 9.30 in the morning lying on the couch watching this .

For years i'd be watching them throwing in likes of BBQ's & everything, thinking that would be so cool to be able to do, i always thought they got to keep it all at the end. Only on watching the re-runs nowadays, it was all about the value of the goods

Paul O Grady is hilarious lol

Sad to hear this. He was hilarious in an episode of Gimme Gimme Gimme with Kathy Burke. May he Rest In Peace.

Ah, poor Dale. I used to love In it to Win It on Saturday nights.

Very sad but in a way it's better he's at peace now. Aids is a very cruel disease.

Where are you getting that as the cause of his death?
