Gunther from friends (James  Michael Tyler ) has died aged 59. Loved his scenes in the show.

Blimey, wasn't a fan of the show, but everyone knows who he is.

 

That's no age at all.

I hate it when people say...."I once met so and so famous at a charity dinner...." but I once met Walter Smith at a charity dinner.

 

He was absolutely charming and spent most of the night propped up at the bar with Neil Lennon. It was around 2010/11 and I think we was Rangers Manager at the time and Lennon was at Celtic. Despite the hatred between Celtic and Rangers, they were like best mates laughing and joking together all evening. It was lovely to see and made me realise that it's only a game at the end of the day...

It really is just a game. When you consider how bitter the rivalry between him and Tommy Burns was yet he carried Tommy's coffin at his funeral....

Walter Smith - producer of probably the most famous scouting report of all time.

A bit of a shock that, to be honest.

RIP.

So much outpouring of love for Walter Smith today and some beautiful tributes from so many in the game. An absolute legend of a man.

When a popular family entertainer passed away, the BBC seemingly had Lionel Blair on speed dial or hauled him in to the studio to share some tributes, memories and anecdotes. You can picture a producer on News 24 last night reacting at the news "can someone get hold of Lionel Blai...shit!"

They've got Biggins on stand-by

What are the odds that at Lionel Blair's funeral the organist will begin the first note of a hymn and someone like Barry Cryer will shout out "The Lords My Shepherd, named it in one"

Terence Wilson (Astro) from UB40 aged 64. Lead vocals on 'Rat In Me Kitchen' :(

Not long after Brian Travers the UB40 Sax player (although they were in the 2 different versions of the band in recent years).
