Wikipedia currently saying 'was'...time around 2.16/2.17 BST I'm posting this...
Remember going to see that at The Odeon back in the 9-1. Only 51 as well. Young. Any conspiracies??? Cedars-Sinai Medical Centre too, that's where Eazy-E pegged it...
Peter was doing a few cons this year, I met him in March for a few last signatures... thought he’d retire end of the year, and he seemed in good spirits at all the events in 2019. A very sad loss.
The comedian, who rose to fame after appearing on TV show Opportunity Knocks in the 1970s, has died at the age of 76
Saw this bloke live in Blackpool when I was like 10/11, 85/6 or summat, he was actually bloody hilarious, really funny. 76 not a bad innings to say he lived a rock n' roll lifestyle for much of his life, he was nearly 80, damn it, can't understand why peeps on Facebook putting up "it was too soon" posts ffs!!!!

Yep me too about ten years earlier on the Central Pier, I think he was the top draw at the summer season. If memory serves he did a family show which I went to then perhaps at the weekend he did something later for the adults.
As you say he was hilarious, all the kids and mums & dads were in stitches.
A really talented bloke with a great singing voice, if you search on YouTube for his 'speeded up' routine you're in for a treat.
Yeah, a proper entertainer. Know he's not gone yet but will also put in a good word for Bobby Davro, saw him around the same time in the same place and he was bloody great, manic throughout, it was brill.
We've lost Brian Walden, probably not a 'celebrity' in the modern sense but someone I certainly remember who could grill an MP to well-done.
RIP Brian.
