Lionel Blair: Veteran TV presenter and dancer dies at 92
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-59171576

Veteran entertainer, TV presenter and dancer Lionel Blair has died aged 92, his agent has said.

Blair, whose stage and screen career spanned eight decades, died early on Thursday morning.

Best known as a team captain on game show Give Us A Clue, in recent years he acted in Ricky Gervais's Extras and also appeared on Celebrity Big Brother.

Another one of the classic entertainers as left this world. I remember growing up as a kid seeing him on all the shows. A regular on many. I specifically remember him being one of the team captains on Give Us A Clue, the other team captained by Una Stubbs (aka Aunt Sally).

At the age of 92, as my grandfather would say "he's had a good innings!".

We don't see many all round entertainers these days.
