an amazing person that she had been.
So, yeah, again, it is very sad to see that her... Weirdly, she is married to Catherine Zeta-Jones' cousin.
Yeah.
Which, I suppose, you know, Welsh people, they all stick together.
And Catherine Zeta-Jones sort of led the tribute to her, saying that she was heartbroken.
Bonnie Tollard actually performed at Catherine Zeta-Jones' wedding to Michael Douglas back in the year 2000.
And they would have obviously known each other throughout that as well.
But it is, you know, someone who I think, because had she either played here quite recently or was due to play here at some point recently, so it is for someone who obviously was so vital, full of life, it is really sad to kind of just see that happen.
Oh, absolutely.
And you would know his voice.
Like he kind of, like he had this sort of, he's a very, you know, stereotypical sort of newsman, kind of of an older era, kind of has a very, kind of very calm voice.
uh very intelligent kind of uh kind of way about him a lot of gravitas a lot of gravitas is the word exactly the word i was i was looking for his career spent five decades across bbc itv and sky news um and i think a lot of the clips that are being shown that are that have been shared recently kind of like are him kind of like you know i suppose announcing or or presiding over some of like the biggest moments in
in in particularly british um british history he he announced on sky news i think it was the death of princess diana and then again more recently the death of of the queen and but he seems to have just like been sort of a a really kind of a well-liked and sort of well-regarded presence within that sort of news news field uh lots of um lots of tributes came in from people who worked alongside them the likes of beth rigby kiernan grew murthy and andy burnham even and david cameron uh who who both both all came out to kind of um
pay tribute to him so he died at the age of 68 which is very young of of prostate cancer which he had been um which he had been sort of at which i said which he had been diagnosed a number of years ago and had been using his position in order to try and to try and urge people to to get tested and to to check them themselves so again
Happy Pride Month.
We are booked, blessed and busy, I can tell you.
I'm not that booked.
Well, I mean.
Just the way he looks.
And I also think it's just like Ethan Slater, you know, the Slaters from EastEnders.
