Newspaper headlines: Freddie Starr 'found dead' in Spanish home

Several papers lead on reports that comedian Freddie Starr has died aged 76. The entertainer - who rose to fame in the 1970s - was found dead in his Spanish apartment on Thursday afternoon, according to the Daily Mirror."Freddie Starr joins his hamster" is the headline in the Sun - a reference to the paper's famous 1986 headline, which alleged the comedian put a live pet in a sandwich and ate it, a claim Starr has denied.

The paper says the revelations will increase pressure on the Home Office to justify its resumption of deportation charter flights to Jamaica, after they were suspended in the aftermath of the Windrush scandal.The Telegraph says victims of crime may soon no longer have to pay to phone the police, after the Home Office announced it would review the charge for non-emergency 101 calls.

I wonder if the BBC News team realise they keep showing a clip of 'Clunk-Click', at which Starr groped a young girl, who was also being repeatedly abused by Savile, but which the Beeb chose to cover up? There's a reason Starr died in Spain.

comedy genius-sad news condolences to his family-RIP

R.I.P Freddie Starr

Very funny and talented man, the English sense of humour has never changed, unfortunately the new generations have and have no sense of humor any more, and it is very sad we live in a world of the easily offended wimps.

It was the butler.....

Hilarious guy x

Incredibly multi talented man. Don’t know anything about him or his personal life but on stage and T.V he had something very special and unique about him. Indeed a bright and shining star.
