00:00Yeah, I feel like Liam's... I didn't know much about him but he was quite young, so it was a bit of a shock.
00:05Especially since I sort of grew up knowing of One Direction.
00:10A musician or a movie star, you know, I can understand, you know,
00:15the affection for one who has some non-celebrity.
00:19Er, the drummer from Foo Fighters, I think.
00:21Yeah, I've never heard him say that. Ted Hawkins.
00:23But, yeah, that's only because I met him a few times as well.
00:26But, yeah, not really, no, apart from that.
00:29Well, just there's a local celebrity who died recently.
00:33Not a very big celebrity, but Truffle,
00:36he was a local drag artist and a friend
00:40and very well known in the gay community in Cardiff
00:44and tragically died really very young, you know.
00:47I remember the death of Mike Jackson, MJ.
00:51So it was heartbreaking. I remember it was in 2009,
00:55so the whole world was freezing. It's really bad and it's tragic.
