Re: Celebrity Croakers 2016
Forget Prince what about Choppers who sadly died at the age of 48.
Who was Choppers some might ask well she was the last surviving chimp of the famous PG Tips adverts from the 60s to the 80s.

Re: Celebrity Croakers 2016
That was just what I was thinking!
No Oink! Prince and Victoria Wood were NOT old...they were older than me, but NOT old! Victoria Wood's death made me feel qute sad too.
...Just saw about Choppers too, now there's a bit of childhood memory gone, I can remember getting really excited about those ads, my whole family did.
