Jeremy Beadle has croaked.
Just seen it on the BBC website.
I always thought he was a bit of a knob but I met him at a magicians convention at Blackpool a few years ago and spent a while chatting to him, he was actually a nice guy and a very good magician. It's a shame - He was only 59

I had the Jeremy Beadle box of jokes and magic - had some awesome practical jokes in it which I used to great effect. Such a shame.

I wonder if he will jump out of his coffin with a mic at his own funeral ?

On a serious note though, it is sad.
RIP.
