Please, people.

This thread is about Keith Floyd, who's dead.

Show some respect.

Eh? I dont get it sean.

Anyway it seems there has been enough interest for this to have been a stand alone thread.

Im pleased about that as he seemed a really nice guy and always good fun. I look forward to lots of bbc tribute repeats. Always good value.

I liked Keith Floyd purely for the fact that he simply spent the majority of his life f_cking about in foreign climbs. No one, and I mean no one, could pull off and inspire me to wear a safari jacket both at the same time.

I too saw Keith meets Keith and truly felt sorry for both Keith Floyd and his daughter. I felt sorry for Floyd because Keith Allen was so letcherous and I felt sorry for his daughter because her reunion had turned into a circus.

Ironically my DVD player of many years died last night half way through a Foyles War box set.

I'll be raising a glass to both legends tonight. R.I.P Keith, and you too DVD player.

Mick - I was just suggesting that we don't get too reverential towards the man - he wasn't noted for his own respect of etiquette after all

My sentiments exactly Mic Mac.

"Mick - I was just suggesting that we don't get too reverential towards the man - he wasn't noted for his own respect of etiquette after all"

Ok no worries Sean, I was posting from my mobile phone at the time so had not seen Bob's post, so not clear what you meant.

Must be something about being a "Keith"...Floyd/Richards/Moon all took/take things to excess...

R.I.P. Keith, you were quite a character in an era where characters are becoming thin on the ground.

Sorry, Tony. Mick beat you to it this time.

You can do the next one though - take turns.

May I suggest the name for the thread is "Who's on the slab"?

Maybe not.

What do you suggest we call this thread Alan?

I'm afraid he's Brown Bread so won't hear you however many times you ask something on his thread M8.

Or a Moroccan Tagine .

But I definitely want a national holiday.

I liked Floyd from his first shows, befor him all the top Chefs traveld the world staying in 5 star hotels and eating in at least 3 star michlin restraunts eating poncy food at over inflated prices. Floyd turns up at any major city world wide heads for the back streets and meets the local and proper people Top Man, did it all first, R.I.P KF

Keith Floyd was a total genius, honest, natural and rock and roll and deserves to be "on the front page" in The Lounge.

When Keith met Keith is on Channel 4 catch up and is brilliant on a number of levels, not least in reflecting on his legacy (constant mindless celebrity chef drivel by comparison). Strangely prophetic that it was broadcast last night and asks whether he is still alive.

A fitting bow at the final curtain. Legend.
