Another hoax? This story has done the rounds several times before.

Have you any links to credible news sites that corroborate your post?

Edit: I see others have posted the BBC link. ***kin' 'ell..... Sodding 2016.

Edit 2: and you've updated your OP to make it look like you had good links to start with.

Bloody hell, thats sad news. 😔

Was he ill? "Passed away peacefully at his home" sounds like the type of thing you'd say if someone was ill or very old.

Poor bloke. RIP

Doesn't appaer to have been from reports and it did say on BBC news 'no suspicious circumstances'. So he's probably had a major heart attack or something.

BBC and other sites will be updating given that the news only broke a few minutes ago.

He doesn't have one. He gave it away last Christmas remember.

Was he culturally that significant? Not being flippant now, but the comments seem to suggest this is pretty monumental.

RIP of course and sad for anyone to die at that age these days
