Yosser Hughes aka Bernard Hill.

Weird that. I watched a pre-recorded interview on BBC News early this morning with Tony Schumacher, the writer of a BBC TV drama about the police in Liverpool (never watched it), and they talked about Bernard Hill because he appears in it. They even showed a montage of his previous roles.

Edit: Found it. Listening to it back, it sounds like they're talking about him dying, but they definitely weren't as his death was only announced a few hours later, and the interview was about the new series of the police drama.

One for the Nivarna fans - Steve Albini from a heart attack, 61

Also produced Seamonsters which was by far the better record.

Morgan Spurlock of Super Size Me fame

Weird. I was just reading about him last night. Apparently most of the health issues he suffered during the McDonalds experiment were down to booze.

 Not surprised. The only time I'm even remotely likely to eat McDonald's is after 8 pints. 😁 

Never really understood that "experiment" though. If all you ear for a month was apples, then there would be some sort of health implications

Aye, that was the gist of the article I read. Everyone already knew it wasn't good for you to eat nothing but McDonalds for an entire month. Pretty pointless documentary really. Anyway, RIP Morgan.
