west here ford shire

Passed away today aged 69 sad really brief illness slipped into a coma died today.

Did he know he was going to die?? After all he claimed to be in contact with the spirit world?

Point of interest was on the books at Liverpool FC during the great Shankly era, but never played first team football..

Colin Fry has never been in touch as far as I know. I don't expect to hear from Derek.

I'm sorry for his family and loved ones

He was a great entertainer. Used to love watching the sheer lunacy of Most Haunted.

He got proved wrong many times though. When he came to Northampton. Researchers came weeks before him.

So young and likely made a fortune from scams. Did anyone here ever believe he was an endowed psychic?

I'm sad to an extent.

He was a charlatan through and through but I couldn't help but like him.

I did think that it wasn't him who was crazy but the people who believed in him.

He had a good life.

I met him once having a fag outside a pub. He told me I should speak to my aunt as she has a secret to tell me.

My aunt laughed.

Of course he was fake, he was a con man in the nicest sense of the word, an entertainer.

According to what I read today, he was one of the originators of most haunted

Did she ever tell you the secret, or too embarrassed?

It's a shame that a person died (happens everyday to lots of people). He was a husband and father (maybe?) But he was a conman, no question about it.

I've never understood the whole "celebrity" death thing.

Soldier, police officer, fireman killed in action barely get a mention, if any. Some "celebrity" dies, and its a big send off.

Certain celebs that actually did something of notice or importance I can make exceptions for!

RIP for his family but they lived the life they did because of him being a charlatan so it’s tempered a bit.

I hated the tv shows, such a load of bollox! A half hour/hour of achieving & proving nothing week after week.

May as well watch the Parliament channel!

I got confused. Lol. I thought he was actually John Edward (who is GORGEOUS by the way) who is another medium from USA. Mixed them up.

I have a lovely image of him going into the afterlife and being beaten senseless by all the people he lied about.

I hope it comes true- nasty conman making money out of people's grief - and if you wsnt to see How he did it derren brown did a great debunking. There isn't a hell hot enough for those who exploit the vulnerable
