Freddie Starr found dead at Spanish home - reports

And Britain's Got Talent judge Amanda Holden said of Starr:"His style may have fallen out of comedy fashion & favour - but it's important to recognise his once huge popularity and fame.

Starr had been arrested as part of Operation Yewtree, the police investigation which began following revelations about Jimmy Savile, in relation to 13 alleged victims. He performed on the 1970 Royal Variety Performance, impressing the audience with his impression of Rolling Stones frontman Mick Jagger.

RussPLFC Ah shit

we never had much up north, but what we had was humour, and now southern PC turds have destroyed that too! How we’ve managed to let a minority dictate such change in this country is a complete mystery, when was the last time a family fell about laughing at a tv programme?

Good voice too
