Phil Harris, the captain of Cornelia Marie, felt like i was there:(

Tony_Yeboah · 30-09-2010 11:17PM

Jesus. I'm still coming to terms with it.

W.Shakes-Beer · 30-09-2010 11:21PM

As mentioned above: Captain Phil Harris.

Don't know what it was, think it was because I used to watch so much Deadliest Catch and Phil was the one Captain on there that I really admired as a person.

Really felt it when he passed, don't know what it was.

Jeff Buckley. I met him a few times before he died - a lovely guy, very funny & tremendously talented.

RIP Jeff.

Darth Vader. I guess I am allowed to be though considering he was my father

Probably either John Hughes or Elliott Smith.

I loved every one of John Hughes movies.. had massive respect for the guy's writing and characters he created (Uncle Buck, John Bender, Ferris Bueller.. to name just 3). I was very sad to learn of his passing. He left Hollywood after being given a sh*tty time by Hollywood execs and to spend time with family, but he probably made the right decision.

Elliott Smith just made some of the finest and most memorable music I've ever heard. He'll be sorely missed, and only got the credit he deserved after his death. But isn't that always the way!

I dont think anyones has really affected me seriously but two that stick out in my head are Darren Sutherland and Jon Lee (former drummer from Feeder).

Two people who it seemed were doing so well in life just before they commited suicide. Hearing about both deaths gave me a similar feeling of unease for some reason.

Mr Benevolent · 30-09-2010 11:30PM

Nothing. Celebrities always fail to move me in life or death. They're a meaningless, artificial irrelevance. I'll cheer when Bono snuffs it though.

MJ23 · 30-09-2010 11:32PM

Robbie Williams.....oh wait, hasnt happened yet, but any day now

For me it was Bill Hicks.

Was he really a celebrity though? I got the impression he wasn't very much 'celebrated' or appreciated while he was alive

I was a young buck, when my older brother told me Elvis was murdered by Dracula in the bath tub - scars it left I tell ya.

Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria

barry711 · 30-09-2010 11:33PM

I agree with challengemaster. How can anyone feel anything for people they never knew?

Rented Mule · 30-09-2010 11:34PM

Elvis - anytime I hear of a fat junkie dying on the toilet I nearly **** myself laughing.

cutymonalisa · 30-09-2010 11:41PM

Charlie Haughey..............

(i got over it though and lately had a dance on his grave!)

thomur · 30-09-2010 11:53PM

John Wayne. The man was a legend. He was dead before I was born but would have loved to live when his films came out. Life seemed much simpler then although it wasnt. The Quiet Man - brilliant film, tense, laughter, angry, love, and happiness at the end

goat2 · 30-09-2010 11:58PM

for me it is Jerry Ryan, i always enjoyed his radio programme, would love to have him these days to see what he would think of this whole financial mess we find ourselves in.

IM0 · 30-09-2010 11:59PM

Ayrton Senna - I wouldnt class him as a celebrity though, he was a racing driver known the world over as one of the greatest

Irish Guitarist · 01-10-2010 12:28AM

Syd Barrett (original Pink Floyd singer/guitarist), although I don't know if he could be classed as a celebrity as such. I find it sad that most people, if they knew anything about him at all, knew him for being 'mad' and knew nothing about his brilliant music.

Also George Harrison and Johnny Cash.

orourkeda · 01-10-2010 12:30AM

Buddy Holly. We'd never have had to listen to American Pie if he was still alive.

Joey the lips · 01-10-2010 12:31AM

Eamonn Jenko from Village green... Colm his partner in crime only died last year...

An awful waste at 52...

That caused quite a stir. The ensuing ruck was quite something.
