Brought up on Rik, Ade and others by my dad.
Such a shame, incredible talent.

not normally that bothered by celeb death announcements, but was genuinely upset by this.
Obviously grew up with Young Ones, Filthy Rich & Cat Flap, New Statesman, Bottom, Dangerous Brothers, etc, but as a young rock fan and wanna be rock start, Bad News was compulsive watching for me and my young mates. we could rattle off whole sections of both the Comic Strip TV shows and the comedy interludes of the album, plus of course we jammed Warriours Of Genghis Khan, Masterbike, Hey Hey Bad News, etc
Very sad loss.
RIP Colin Grigson

This. Personally have always preferred it to Spinal Tap.

Well, this is terrible news.
Don't think this has been mentioned, yet, but I loved his versions of the Grimm Fairy Tales:

Probably stopped breathing, mate.
Loved the Comic Strip, Young Ones. Miss just the 4 channels.

Some of the bottom Live performances were just brilliant. He was a fantastic actor on screen but live on a stage, with an audience he can feed off and the potential to some times wander and other times gallop away from the script is where he was at his absolute mercurial best for me.

RIP.
I could not help but wonder the same thing.
All I can find so far is this......
He died at home in London. The Metropolitan Police said the death was not believed to be suspicious.
They said they were called to reports of a sudden death of a man in his 50s at 13:19 BST on Monday, in Barnes in south west London.
London Ambulance Service said "a man, aged in his 50s, was pronounced dead at the scene".
"Sudden death" & "not suspicious" suggests a heart attack, perhaps.

Didn't he have a really bad accident on a quad-bike a few years ago?
56 is far too young. RIP

He did. Was in a coma for 5 days with a fractured skull.
Jokes afterwards that he'd beaten Jesus 5-3 because he'd been dead for 5 days before resurrection.
Amazingly, that happened in 1998. If you'd asked me to guess when it happened I'd have said no earlier than 2005.
