    RIP Jerry I shared a hotel lift with him in London once he was with a very young blonde girl the week after she’d sold her story to a Sunday paper

    Apologies :D Genuine question, if he had been 80 would you still have thought that it was no age? What's the cut-off? Genuinely intrigued.

    Aim is to stay fit and healthy as long as possible, I don’t put an age on it, just worries me a bit when folks with his money start popping off.
    I know money can’t actually buy you health but it can give you an edge us ‘ordinary’ folk don’t have!

    It's a long time since she passed but I am really sorry to hear you lost your mum at the age she was at, and the age you were at :( That must've been really hard. I know what you mean, I guess as you age your perspective shifts. A nurse recently said to my missus that we are still really young (we're both 36), and I thought I don't feel it! But the nurse was probably mid-late 40s.. When I was 18, 36 seemed ancient! I guess most people feel young in their minds whatever age they are, but the number on the tin says differently.

But i can still get to Oakwell, Rugby at Fev and holidays so i 'am better off then a lot of folk.

    If we were too tired or skint to go out to a club at uni, staying at home with cheap wine and Springer was always a good reserve option for an evening's entertainment.

    Just about hitting 55, I hope I've got more than 79 in me, that'd mean I'm more than ⅔'s in and I've got a lot more planned! Having said that, I didn't realise he was that old.

    It can also provide access to many things that really aren't very good for us. And lots of them.

    The absolute King of chat shows. I Married A Horse will never be beat. The likes of Oprah, Killroy, Ricki Lake, Kyle etc can only dream of a show title like that.

    Ruined many a life in the name of “entertainment”. A truly appalling human being.

    No idea what he was like as a person, but his programme was essentially the vanguard of modern exploitative tv, parading the disadvantaged, unfortunate and mentally ill for people to laugh at like a modern freak show.
