    Saw him a number of times. One of the best live acts going. No one was sat down after a few minutes of Jimmy doing his stuff.

    I see Terry Medwin has passed away at 91, a Welshman who played in the John Charles era, and got the goal which got Wales into the 1958 World cup. Great player for Spurs. RIP

    The British Olympic swimming champion, David Wilkie, has died at the age of 70.

    His family announced that the Scottish great Wilkie, who won 200m breaststroke gold for Great Britain in Montreal in 1976, died peacefully on Wednesday morning after suffering from cancer.

    Wilkie’s family said in a statement: “It is with great sadness that the family of David Wilkie MBE announce that he died peacefully surrounded by his family this morning, following his brave battle with cancer.”

    As well as the 1976 gold medal, Wilkie won two Olympic silver medals and three world titles. Born in Colombo, Sri Lanka in 1954 to Scottish parents, Wilkie won his first major medal with a bronze at the 1970 Commonwealth Games in Edinburgh, representing Scotland.

    Charlie Colin, a founding member of the American pop rock band Train, has died at age 58.

    His mother confirmed the tragic news saying the Drops of Jupiter star 'slipped and fell in the shower' according to TMZ.

    The incident is said to have taken place while Colin - a former bassist for the band - was house-sitting for a friend in Belgium. It is currently unclear exactly when he passed away.

    His mother said Charlie was not found until his friends came back from their trip approximately five days ago.

    Colin was reportedly forced to leave the successful group in 2003 due to substance abuse issues.

    Documentary maker Morgan Spurlock, who famously ate only at McDonald's for a month in Super Size Me, has died.

    Only 53.

    Blue Bell in town had been his more recent perch, when he wasn't on his travels of course.
