I just read that Freddie Starr had a heart attack and heart surgery back in 2010. His health has probably been poor since then.
He is free of that now, which is a mercy.

RIP Freddie

Interesting that the BBC website have decided to ignore his death?

He wasn't/isn't politically correct.
So to acknowledge him isn't politically correct either.

Must admit though, ignoring his death is a novel approach. Kind of implies they will behave as if he was still alive - much in the same way Banks and Utility providers do for the rest of us, however often our next of kin tell them otherwise.

I think I'll take a leaf out of their book and ignore my own death (whenever it happens).

They didn't ignore it, it is in the entertainment section.
