It was 'plays' not goes, but 'Cheggers plays dead' would be factually incorrect.

I am aware of this, as the joke is that I changed 'plays' to 'goes' in an attempt to get a cheap laugh from the death of a beloved* celebrity.

Apparently it was some kind of lung disease that had been going on a while. This was his last tweet in September.. Very sad.

Real Shame, Although Extras was mostly shit, the Xmas special with him dancing drunk and naked in a pub singing "Cheggers plays cock" always makes me laugh, not much else does in Extras mind.

I was always a bit ambivalent about Cheggers, though his little skip used to get on me tits, but I didn’t find him objectionable and talentless in the same way as Trevor and Simon, or as irritating as Tony Blackburn.

Well, you know how it is, sometimes you just take an instant dislike to people. Can’t really explain why, you just do, and I did. They’re probably very nice people IRL.

I have at least heard of him, which is more than I can say for most of the people who appear in these threads.

That aside, I couldn't tell you about a single thing he's done, or pick him out of a line up of people who look vaguely like Keith Chegwin.

That's how to know you've made it as a celebrity.

And then ... I look at that video and ask myself, 'Is it so different from Vic Reeves Big Night Out?' which was something I liked. And then AGAIN I think, 'but Vic and Bob were funny and made it appear deliberately haphazard,' whereas Trevor and Simon .... were not to my taste.

Weren’t Yrevor & Simon mostly kids TV when you were decidedly not a kid though, Warhead?

Post subject:  Re: Celebrity Deathlist 2017

Yes, that’s true, but my kids were kids during that period so I was occasionally subjected to this duo.

He was on something the other day saying he was chucked out of the magic circle. There was also the Steven someone from ITV that was a magician kid’s tv presenter, and I think he utilised more of the magicians act in his presenting. I don’t know if he’s still on tv.

A bit off topic, but can anyone remember the name of the characters that Andi Oeters and some young lad took on, on Going Live or Live & Kickjng? Usually filmed outside Broadcasting House, he and this lad wore long sheepskin coats or Macs and were like cockney dodgy traders. A bit Dell’boy-ish. I wonderecwhat that lad was doing now as he was so young that for some reason I occasionally remember him and wonder if he is still on TV.

Post subject:  Re: Celebrity Deathlist 2017

I remember Trevor and Simon being funny, but I did wonder if part of that was because as a kid, everything seemed great (nostalgia, eh).

I was going to watch some videos of Trevor and Simon on youtube to see if my young self was a fool (or my memory corrupted), but ended up watching Dick and Dom playing that 'bogies' shouting game instead. Crass, yes, stupid too, but really really funny.
