RIP to him that's very young. I do think those type shows are scams though that prey on the vulnerable

I'm tempted to say ,Did he see that coming? or is that really bad ?:shocked:,I agree Niamh,but I used to like watching him.

Ammi 25-08-2015 09:28 AM

...I read this as Stephen Fry/I'm tired.. and then felt guilty at the huge, huge relief that it wasn't ...I do recognise him vaguely though...so sad for him and for his family/friends...

I read it as Colin Firth when I first saw it and same

Amy Jade 25-08-2015 09:32 AM

Too young :(

I don't know of him but I'm aware of seeing him on Living when my mum watched those tv shows when a big audience sit in a studio and he attempts to 'contact' their passed on loved ones, he always seemed quite a nice person

Yes I have seen him on TV

A sad loss

My mum loves watching his TV specials - much to my chagrin - so I'm sure she'll be upset but I just can't be really at someone who spent a life trying to delude and hoax people who'd lost loved ones themselves. It's probably the most despicable (legal) job going.

Yeah, my thoughts as well

kirklancaster 25-08-2015 12:57 PM

I'm sorry that he has passed so young and from such an evil disease, but his shows were - like all those of TV 'clairvoyant/mediums' - pure crapola.

We are supposed to be so gullible that we will readily believe, that here we have 'gifted' people who can answer beyond doubt, probably, humanity's most eagerly sought question; "Is there life after death?", and what do we get?:

"Your Grandad's with me. Why is he showing me a green vase?"

Why indeed Colin. :laugh:

Vanessa 25-08-2015 12:58 PM

Same thing my mother had. Such an evil disease. :sad:

So did I Ammi, I thought Oh No! :shocked: so I felt some guilt also.

I had had heard of Colin Fry but that was about it . May he R.I.P.

It is said at the beginning that the shows are for entertainment purposes only, if anyone finds comfort from that I can't see why that would be considered despicable.

Yes, may he RIP. He was a fake medium, but his chocolate was lovely though.
