I didn't like him as a person but he was fascinating to watch. What a shame he's been taken so young.

Just seen on sky news that pete burns has died after suffering cardiac arrest.

Such a shame.

Great character but ruined himself.

Concerns me.

Sad to hear of the demise of Pete Burns. He was a cross between Oscar Wilde and Dorothy Parker. You don't get more brilliant than that. RIP

"Repugnant" news. RIP to a CBB legend.

He looked awful in those pics posted a few months ago.

he was vile to Jodie but that was perfectly deserved

he was great on CBB, and I also remember that show he did wife swap or whatever it was with Ruddock, the producers obviously thought they wouldn't get on, but they got on really well

Such sad news. The Celebrity Big Brother series that he appeared in was one of the classics.

I didn't like his personality, but I greatly admired his wit. "The coat's been arrested!"

Agreed.

He had great acerbic wit, too.

I feel for his friends and family. He did not appear to be well recently.
