Title: Been away for a week... Bowen, Dodd and Hawking all gone...
Post by: GroupC on March 18, 2018, 08:55:29 AM
I've been in Italy for a week and in that time these three - this surreal threesome when you put them together - have all left us. Not surprisingly I didn't see coverage of Jim Bowen or Ken Dodd on RAI's 24hr news channel (now that would have been something!) but I knew about Stephen Hawking.

What's happened to the world while I've been away? Anyone else of note gone? I really do hope not.

Got up to a very uncomfortable 40 degrees here, and Bealette was in a cat 2 cyclone in Darwin, but otherwise, not much  ;D ;)

Welcome back.  :thumbsup:

One or two or more Russians who upset Putin have also left this world or are close to.
Some may have been helped.

For the others ( excluding Hawking's)
What we have now is the increasing loss of those made by TV, who date from its beginnings of viewing the mass population.
