I just saw that; seems like a genuinely nice and funny guy and well able to laugh at himself.

His appearance in Extras is a classic.

Yes, I think it's what killed him in the end.

His last tweet

RIP. Had himself kind of a resurgence with life is Short and Extras which he was so funny in and as many have pointed out already showed up so often on the telly in the 80s and 90s.

an icon of my childhood.

his interview on the Viz documentary, about how it ruined his life after it printed a story about him having no talent was pure class.

Ah ****e, I was only watching him in Extras yesterday.

''Pop Knob in Fanny''

For me this was one of the best scenes in Extras and Keith played a stormer in that episode.

RIP.

First saw Keith on Swap Shop many moons ago.

Always came across as a genuinely nice fella.

Sorry to hear that.

Remember him well on Swap Shop and Cheggers Plays Pop as a kid.

Read a funny story online today about him :pac:

"A few years ago I had the pleasure of attending a quiz night hosted by Keith Chegwin. At the end he was good enough to sign some autographs. I thought it would be a giggle to show the chaps at work so I went up. Keith was very smiley and asked what my name was. I responded and went back to my seat, autograph in hand. When I sat down and read it, it just said:

To Mike, Get fcuked, Love Cheggers'"
