Mac_fae_Gillie Posted December 11, 2017 Share Posted December 11, 2017 Must have been the most energetic TV star of the 80s and 90s and nearly the loudest huge children's TV star from a time of "cringe TV" never really changed as he moved to adult TV. Terrible to think he has passed away at only 60, best wishes to Janice and the rest of his family. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cade Posted December 11, 2017 Share Posted December 11, 2017 Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis is a terrible condition. Scarring on the inside of the lungs reduces the air volume of the lungs over time until you die. Nobody knows what causes it and there is (currently) no effective treatment. Most people who develop it die within three years, with only 1-in-5 making it to five years. Horrible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SwindonJambo Posted December 11, 2017 Share Posted December 11, 2017 My old office in Swindon was near a Theatre and he did panto there 4 Or 5 years ago. One of my colleagues saw him hanging around outside and we all went to look and it was indeed him. I know he had serious booze issues as his career went South but he recovered and reinvented himself, RIP Keith - 60 is far too young to go. It sounds like a truly awful condition which killed him and hopefully an effectiv3 treatment will be found one day, even if it’s too late for him sadly .

BigC Posted December 12, 2017 Share Posted December 12, 2017 I had 2 dealing with him, one when he called me fat and one where he sent me a bunch of DM's on twitter because he didn't like what I'd said to him. Wouldn't wish his illness on anyone though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
