| Pneumonia and leukaemia ... a bit of a double whammy that. I never really liked his show much. Never been into pranks that make fools out of others. Still, sad for his wife and kids. |

He stopped his shows
after some years
so I give him credit,
it is sad loss for his family.
He beat that cancer in 2005.

If it had not been for poor Stinking New Labour hospitals Beadle would have lived... It's a little known fact that all bad things that happen in Britain are the fault of the current Corrupt Government. 100% FACT.
LTNS is now the authority of Beadle's preferences. |

| The poor chap had Leukaemia, that was the underlying condition... that, and it`s treatment, both lower a person`s immune response to any infection, and from what a healthy person could shrug off as a `chest infection`, an already immunity-compromised person can develop terminal pneumonia.. So that`s what they put on the death cert., that was the final straw. Many Stroke patients also have pneumonia as `cause of death`, though the Stroke was the underlying cause that led to the chest infection because they couldn`t swallow their own saliva. Pneumonia is a very wide term, and it worries me when we get reports like this, so many folks DO fully recover, depending on the underlying disease (or not). It`s a word that badly scares some folks un-necessarily - though it should be explained, it often isn`t. It`s not a `double whammy` for poor Jeremy,it`s more about the way one thing leads to another... I wasn`t a fan, but I`m deeply saddened to think of what he`s gone through, and for his family who went through it with him and now have to adjust to their loss. |

Didn't his wife leave him to bring up his kids single handedly too?
My mate saw him once and said he was generous as he gave several people a microwave.
