2018...checking out

RIP Jim. Great bloke.

Our company launched a new initiative (for us) about 8 years ago called Brand Bullseye and the Managers conference was held at Blackpool. He was the obvious choice to be a host and did the links between each speaker.
The guy was absolutely hilarious, had everyone in stitches. Naturally at the evening meal you couldn't get near him he was in such demand
 
Very sad.

“When Alexander of Macedonia was 33 he cried salt tears because there were no more worlds to conquer.

Bristow’s only 27.”

Now Eric and Sid both gone.
 
About 10 years ago on this site I remember someone saying they were one of the teletubby puppets... perhaps on stage rather than TV.

Anyone remember that? Is this that same guy by any chance?




Teletubbies star Simon Barnes died aged just 53 after descending into alcoholism, an inquest heard yesterday.

The actor, who played Tinky Winky from 1998 to 2001, died of hypothermia and had a high level of alcohol in his blood, tests revealed.

His body was found in January in a side street near the waterfront in Liverpool where he was understood to have been living rough.

Mr Barnes had trained as a ballet dancer and choreographer before taking the role of the handbag-carrying purple Teletubby.

A divorced father-of-three, he was originally from Ampthill, near Bedford, but moved to Merseyside last year for a fresh start.
