a couple we seem to have missed although i cannot understand why

Christopher Martin Jenkins

a superb cricket commentator. I knew nothing about him other than listening to him on radio 4 for years listening to cricket commentaries. A familiar voice now gone.

Gerry Anderson.

A large piece of my childhood seems to have gone now with the man who created Thunderbirds and many more

Obviously not. If you did, then on the basis of form, you'd be railing his background.

I imagine few outside of military circles will know who he was.

An absolute man-mountain of a bloke, by all accounts. I think his BMI was something like 32, not that this is any reliable indication of how fit or healthy someone is.

Or unless they've been paying any attention to current affairs/politics for the two and a half decades or so.

I would have thought that Big Norm would have been more recognisable than a cricket commentator . Even Mrs BR has heard of Norm . She said ' You mean the fat yank army bloke that wears a green Foreign Legion hat ' . A very accurate description of him in his many TV appearances .

Such is life on The Sin Bin that it wouldn't surprise me if someone started an RIP thread for Coleen Rooney's sister.
