pSinatra Posted 12 December 2016 Share Posted 12 December 2016 Don't mean to take the piss. I was a just a young boy when he was doing the weather & this is the first thing I thought of. To have your own Spitting Image puppet is quite an honour. RIP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not totally. Saw Francis Rossi on BBC Breakfast the other week and he's still touring with the band and they've got new members. But obviously it's not Status Quo as we all know it.

So, this Christmas he'll give them his heart and the very next day, they'll give it away. In all seriousness, this Grim Reaper chap is starting to piss me off. George was a year younger than me, too. I wasn't a massive fan, but Wham were better than most mainstream 80s pop bands, he was a fine singer & songwriter and he seemed like a nice bloke who was prepared to laugh at himself.
