That's really sad. I saw him when he was supporting Aerosmith at Hyde Park. He brought his young son on stage and held him for the last song or so, and his son kept trying to knock the mic out of the stand. Could see Cornell was amused, trying to carry on performing without laughing or having the mic knocked away. It was quite a sweet moment actually, I thought it was pretty cute.
Very sad. Fantastic singer.
I was shocked. Felt quite sad when I saw the news yesterday. Only one (other) person in my office recognised his name!

I'm thinking that it's just not fair. It's odd to explain.
RIP The Best Bond. Anyone who disagrees can fight me. Yeah, the real Bond.
Shame he's gone, but he had a good innings though.

Not my fav Bond, but WTF...
Mr Chris gets the first red ink.
I thought he was already dead...
Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't he the first Bond to die?

Peter Sellers? If you count the original Casino Royale?
I guess it depends on how picky you want to be.
Is that the dude from MasterChef or the dude that did the Top Gear theme tune?
Such a horrible way to go, what a shame.

I mostly think of his voice from The Wind In The Willows, the stop motion one from the 80s, with David Jason as Toad.
I've seen a couple of tweets saying that Andy Cunningham (Bodger from Bodger and Badger) has died. No official word yet though.

Red ink has been grusomely applied.

He must be in his forties... yikes.
I hope Badger is holding up.
I'd say he was at least 40 in the programme. So 60 odd now

Really? I always thought he was young in that programme. Maybe it was his stylish hat.
Shit, he was 67!
Looks like Adam West has gone to visit the batcave in the sky.

In 1983, Adam West wrote a short op-ed about video games. In 2017, I'm tearing up reading it. Sleep easy, Mr. West. And thank you. pic.twitter.com/1J1ouqHDRe
