Oh. They said he hadn't got long. Poor fella.
RIP.

Bone Cancer Poor Guy. His real suffering is over. RIP

Simon Dee was the face of the 60s and 70s. I thought he was great, and he changed television with his offbeat approach to the Establishment.

Thanks for the memories Simon. Rest in peace xx

How sad.

He went off the rails, got too arrogant. He was a Radio Caroline DJ on 199

RIP

He ruffled a few feathers at the BBC wilder and they sacked him. In those days, you didn't rock the boat, but Simon Dee was fearless. He was strictly anti-Establishment.

Ok. Thanks.
The bcc could do with a big shake up now.

Rest in peace Simon.

He used to have a lovely, cheeky smile.

Good point!
However if you look at the British Commerce Chambers site their latest seminar seems exciting.
The briefings will demonstrate to businesses how a close working relationship with their regulatory services department may:

•save them money
•help them to achieve regulatory compliance
•create a closer working relationship between businesses and local regulators
•gain a clear understanding of the work LBRO is doing to reduce the regulatory burden on businesses
•gain an increased awareness of the better regulation agenda
•feel confident about approaching departments to achieve regulatory compliance
•understand the importance of joint working between businesses and local regulators to tackle local community issues which have a negative impact on business.

I'm a bit bored today.

The name rings a bell. I read his obit earlier. Fancy becoming a bus driver after being a celebrity like that!
