The 8th Annual Celebrity Death Thread 2023

[Victor Mildew]

Could this BE any more tragic?

[Moggy]

At least Keanu Reeves had the last laugh.

Used to watch Friends all the time in the early 2000s when it was on E4 every day at 6pm or 7pm. Haven't regularly watched Friends for probably 15 years now.

Given Perry's history of drug usage, it's not too much of a surprise he died young-ish but it feels weird knowing he's dead given what a cultural phenomenon Friends was.

Sad to see this one, but as others have said, perhaps not the biggest surprise.

Saw it this morning whilst doing the MS Rewards points for Bing news searches, which was apt.

At least Keanu Reeves had the last laugh.

Another soul harvested to maintain his unnaturally long life.

[Tomous]

That's actually made me quite sad. Loved him on Friends, but his best work has to be his M. Night Shymalan story.

Trust there to be a twist involved with a story about M. Night Shymalan:

[kazanova_Frankenstein]

That's a great story

Good actor

[Cheeky Devlin]

Man I was just thinking about him the other week.

Great actor. Shame he's gone but 95 is a good run in anyones books.

[rinks]

Just been revoked.

[Hypes]

I only knew him from his spunky backpack

TV presenter and actress Annabel Giles has died after being diagnosed with a brain tumour in July.

She starred in children's show Razzmatazz, the 1993 film Riders and was a model for cosmetic brand Max Factor.

Confirming the death of their "incredible mother", her children said she had undergone brain surgery and radiotherapy treatment.

Daughter Molly and son Tedd said on X she was "one of a kind".

Giles, 64, was also known for her 2013 stint in the I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here! camp and ITV's Posh Frocks And New Trousers with Sarah Greene.

Rest in peace.

Inappropriate joke:

Why did the Avon Lady smile?

Because Max Factor.

[Vermilion]

Why did the Avon Lady smile?

Because Ad answered the door.

Terry Venables, former England manager, has died aged 80.

One of the all-time great England managers, IMO. Euro 96 was truly a magical time.

That summer was one of the greatest times of my life.

RIP Terry. You couldn't be trusted with money, but who gives a gooseberry fool, Euro '96 was good enough that I'll forgive anything.

[Vermilion]

I spent most of '96 hiding from the truant officer.

[Preezy]

RIP EL TEL X
