Victorian Posted December 7, 2023 Share Posted December 7, 2023 Has died. Very sad. A man who always talked a lot of thoughtful, measured, sense. As a philosopher and intellectual he was right up there. The country would be in a much better place if run by people of his calibre.

Tazio Posted December 7, 2023 Share Posted December 7, 2023 Always worth listening to when he spoke. Also a good bit part performance in Peaky Blinders. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

frankblack Posted December 7, 2023 Share Posted December 7, 2023 Sad news. I always found him interesting to listen to. Didn't he have a cameo as a barman in the TV series Life On Mars? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
New Town Loafer Posted December 7, 2023 Share Posted December 7, 2023 To be honest, I found him boring and his poetry to be utter shite. Nevertheless, very sad news. Was only diagnosed 8 weeks ago 😌 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bass Culture and LKJ in Dub were the first Dub records I ever bought. Still pull them out frequently. Superb records. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
