I was in the same class as Sam Kelly at The Liverpool Collegiate School. His real name was Roger. Although he was born in Manchester his family moved to Prescot when he won a place in the Llverpool Cathedral Choir.

Make that three as former EastEnders actor John Bardon has also passed away. Sad to hear of the deaths of all three, especially the legendary Donald Sinden.

Donald Sinden didn't even make the BBC news. Shame - I really liked his style..

Think the death of Rev Ian Paisley seemed to draw all the attention on the news once it was announced but the morning news bulletins did announce his death .

His "Nevah! Nevah! Nevah!" proclamation will be hard to forget! With his death, the Scottish referendum had less prominence than earlier in the week, and even Boris Johnson becoming PPC for Uxbridge was given less attention than we might have expected.

Sad news that broke through on Thursday was the death of 70s singer and songwriter Lynsey de Paul. She had hits including Sugar Me, No Honestly, My Man & Me and her 1977 Eurovision duet with Mike Moran, Rock Bottom.
