Always had a soft spot for this tune, and loved Cheggers Plays Pop. Not to mention that Cheggers/Philbin was probably my first exposure to a celebrity wedding and I was quite jealous that he'd bagged Maggie at the time...

Wow. Had no idea he was even ill. Awful news.
I have no memory of the above video song.
RIP Cheggers
Real sad, I always though of him as the boy on TV with the bubbling personality. Yet now find he died at 60, he was only 5 years younger than me.
Always remember that both He and Noel Edmonds (the sort of Ant and Dec of the day) went through a bad patch, when an action game show went tragically wrong and a contestant died (which I suppose was an even worse day for the contestant), and put paid to their bigtime TV careers for a long time. Noel and Keith did manage to work their way back on to TV slowly.
RIP.
Oh right, I knew it was a TV mate of Noel Edmonds that was on that show, and though it was Keith, as he worked with Noel,
Wrote above without checking. DOH!. Must be getting old
PS.....Mike Smith, can hardly remember him at all. Yep, am getting real old.
