For me its the reverse though perhaps its just an age difference in as much as those people who are passing now were influential in life during my era (and not yours)? So I'm going to guess you late forties or younger? Either that or you need to get out more / I need to get out less!

Rolf Harris, convicted sex offender and ex-entertainer, went straight to hell today aged 93. The Australian-born scumbag was convicted of a string of indecent assaults in June 2014. These included one on an eight-year-old autograph hunter, two on girls in their early teens and a catalogue of abuse against his daughter's friend over 16 years.
Despite his conviction for sex offences, daughter Bindi Nicholls, 59, has always stood by her tarnished father and sensationally blamed his generation for his "flirty" behaviour Bit odd.
He was a fantastically talented artist who could mimic other artists styles which is incredibly hard to do…. Just a shame he was also a filthy sicko who kiddie fiddled.
