Used to love watching him on TV, a great presenter and TV critic.

Yep one of my favourites as a youngster.
So deadpan. I loved his voiceovers.

That's a shame, I used to enjoy watching "Clive James on Television".....RIP.

RIP Clive. I remember seeing his show on TV as a child when my parents would watch and the clips of the Japanese game shows

Loved his show as a kid, RIP

Endurance! I used to love his show. Seems to be a day of bad news today.

Thekwango · 27 Nov 2019 at 16:27

not a good day for celebs......
loved his chat shows back in the late 80's/early 90's and always loved his pee inducing description of Arnie (though i had to google it to remember it word for word)

He famously described Arnie as looking like "a brown condom full of walnuts"

I just heard this news. Very sad. I liked the his dry humour and wit on the programme he used to host in the 80s.

RIP.

One of the truly great wits that has ever lived. RIP.

Damn, end of an era! His show was a highlight of my youth.

Loved his sense of humour in his tv show way back in the late 80s+, RIP.

Dropping like flies as they used too say. This is a celeb list of 2019 deaths, still a month to go though. Can't say I've heard of most of them. Lida Sheridan quite hot though.

Such a funny/articulate/intelligent guy, he'd been ill for over 10 years (terminal cancer). RIP

Flibster · 27 Nov 2019 at 19:30

Aaaawwww.

I knew he was terminally ill, but he's held on for a while.

And of course... **** cancer!
