The Mock Turtle

Sam Lloyd (Ted the lawyer from Scrubs) has died from cancer :( His former co-stars organised a GoFundMe for his medical expenses a while back. Another shining endorsement of the US medical system - he might not have been a millionaire, but he can't have been on minimum wage.

Such a sad loss.

Millie (My Boy Lollipop) has died and so has Hillard Atkinson from Was (Not Was). I watched the video for Walk The Dinosaur just now - he was the one in the hat.

One of the founders of Krafrwerk has also died.

I'm a massive Was (Not Was) fan, I have nearly all their albums and he had an incredible voice. I'm sad I'll never get to see them.

But I was quite surprised when this made it on to the front page of the BBC news.

little Richard has died

Ah, no I had missed it!

I thought Little Richard was already dead.

So did I, Lily. He was a lot younger than I'd realised.

Nigel the dog off of Gardeners World has passed away. I wanted him to be my dog

That's very sad. Monty's dogs following him around is the best bit of Gardeners' World.

It really is!

I only watch Gardener's World for Nigel and Nelly. :sad:

If it cheers you up in any way, I've been discovering Tutti Frutti was originally a 1950s song about anal sex. I didn't think people did it in those days! :hitchesbosom:

Sodom was flattened 4,000 years ago!

I just was a bit shocked people would be singing about it! I love it.

The song I mean, not anal sex.

Lily!

Lily!

National Holidays have gone.

Every time I see this thread jumping up on the board, I always think ‘oh no, who’s gone now?’ While we’re not at 2016 levels yet, it’s still been such a sad year for celebrity deaths
