That kind of sucks.
Beadles mum used to live in my village, and he'd often be seen in the shops and streets etc.
Never saw him myself, mind you, and I don't know if she lives here any more (or if she's even alive).

Jeremy Beadle took a bit of stick, what with his hand etc, but everyone loved him really.  He was a staple of prime-time telly when I was a lad, and to the end he was as hard-working as ever.  As Sinsin said he did a lot of work for lukemia, having suffered himself.

He will truly be missed. :'(

Oh come on, he's just in the middle of filming his new series of Beadle's About.

"Now what we told you was that I had died. What we didn't tell you, however, was that actually I'm still alive."

My parents were in a restaurant with him once, apparently he was a dick.

The Sun went for "Beadle's Not About"

Charming.


I have the same sentiments about this that I have about the death of Heath Ledger, it is sad that someone is dead, but I didn't know them, and they didn't influence me, so I am not sad. Just as they weren't sad when people I know died.

Hahaha, thats great :D Beadle was a legend for me as a young person, not even for Beadle's About but for his appearance on You've Been Framed, which I admit I watched avidly every week when I was younger ;) He did a lot of work for charity too, so it is a shame he's died. Still, I know a lot of people enjoyed his earlier pranks, and I remember several people saying to me; watch out, beadles about! when I found 50p on the floor etc LOL.

Gen-gen is slowly becoming a memorial board for celebrity deaths.
