ZZ Top probably on every 'playlist' on the 80s video jukebox. Thought they were too 'corny' at first... then they became a 'fact of life'! lol!  :(

That's a great shame. :(

Watched them on TV at Glastonbury 2016(?). Easily the best act I saw. Just came on middle of Saturday afternoon, played a storming* set for ~40 minutes.

There's a good documentary about them on Netflix.


* Other than an ill-advised cover of "Foxy Lady". Billy Gibbons is great, but he isn't Jimi Hendrix.

We loved her as Mrs Hudson in Sherlock. Not much screen time but each moment memorable.

Definitely my favourite of the roles she played.

For those of us of a certain age she will always be Aunt Sally... RIP

For those of us a bit older she was Sandy in Summer Holiday.

Ah. Bless. She had a 'Happy', 'interested' face... never a bad thing. RIP.

Just seen that on t'news.  Very sad.  I've had many laughs watching him on cats does countdown over the years and his entire episode p-take on cats when Jimmy Car was in tax trouble was sublime.

This one's definitely a shock, I'd not heard anything about him being ill and as far as I knew he was still filming Cats does Countdown.  That's a real shame.
