It would appear that Keith Floyd has died, as well as Patrick Swayze:

Yeah, I commented on Patrick in the random poo thread and a friends Fb status informed me of Keith's death.
It's sad when the people you grew up watching on TV and in films start dying.
It makes you realise you're getting closer to it yourself.
What a happy thread.

I love Keith Floyd's shows. The article is right - they were pretty shambolic. But that's what I love about them! I particularly liked it when the item he was cooking burned or tasted bad or something. The typical response was "oh well, more wine for us then!!". :lol:

All the news keeps talking about Dirty Dancing when everybody knows Road House was his finest work.

True. It's an overlooked film for sure.

I have intentionally overlooked it for a long time. And will continue to do so.

Roadhouse was enjoyable but, IMHO, mainly due to Jeff Healey's efforts.

And a fitting thread to mention the late, great Jeff Healey.

Roadhouse is one of those film that punches above it's weight. Despite itself :lol:
