I heard heart attack in Rome. I didn't realise he was only 51. The Soprano's is my alltime favourite TV show. RIP. Fantastic as Tony Soprano.

Mick Aston Archaeologist and Broadcaster.

People have criticized Time Team but it's probably done more to promote archaeology and the appreciation of local history in the UK then anything else.

Mick - He knew his stuff.

Has no one mentioned Corey Monteith on here?  For reasons I still don't fully understand I watched the first couple of series of Glee and used to like Finn (not in that way).

First seen live at the Bull & Gate pub, Kentish Town, in the early 80's, where the punters were invited to gamble double or quits for their 10 squid entry. (We doubled ours!)
