Sir Michael Parkinson: Chat show host dies aged 88.
Best ever.

RIP.
Very sad. We all recognise our own mortality when these icons of our younger years pass away.
Enjoy every day, guys, you don't know which one will be your last.

Lifelong friend Dicky Bird on Talksport talking how he rang him yesterday to say goodbyes.

Heartbreaking.

 

[sainthelens]

Very sad news. Another part of my childhood gone.
Billy Connolly will be devastated.

88 is a good innings. Rest in peace, Michael, you were the absolute best. (And no-one mentions the Emu, OK?)

Regarding Parky you're right he was an Icon, I remember when I looked forward to his interviews, there are plenty of memorable ones, the Olly Reed one is an all time classic :lol:


RIP. Parky
