I am upset to here about the death of Artist + presenter Mark Speight. I loved watching him on SMart (CBBC) and he will be greatly missed.

-MS-

I was quite sad to hear about it too. He always seemed like a pretty cool guy, although I've not watched children's TV for a long time now. But I remember him on Smart and a few other things over the years.

Same here, i remeber him from my youth on TV, he will be greatly missed he seemed like a great guy.

Smart was brilliant. Never really watched Scratchy & Co though.

Sad to hear, although i would be happy to know how it happend, but maybe it shouldn't be mentioned..?

Sad to hear indeed. I used to watch SMart when I was younger.

IIRC, his fiancéé commited suicide about 1 or 2 months ago.

Rope+Neck Shame.

Apparently they've arrested Neil Buchanan - they think Speight may have died of an art attack.

Quote from TAYLOR-MANIA :

Yeah that's sad news.
The story goes...his partner & himself had a wild party mixing drugs with alcohol & she ended up dead with burns in a bath...he was arrested in connection to her death but was found to be innocent.

Despite the fact that there was a larger facsimile of her body laid out next to the bath, made from towels and toothbrushes.

Oooh dear Kev, I fear you may have overstepped the line slightly there. :scared: But shamefully, I cannot help but laugh at your humour.

I found the Neil Buchanan one in a different forum this morning - I don't want credit for it!
