Frank Sidebottom (creator) dies

Chris Sievey, the man responsible for creating Frank Sidebottom,, has died.

I will always remember Frank from the Channel 4 programme "Remote Control" and of course, more recently, the Channel M test card.

I saw this reported earlier, quite a shock really, RIP Chris/Frank....

'Oh blimey!'

Anyone remember the overnight live-action testcard he did on Channel M? It was posted here a while back.

EDIT: Ah, re-read the first post now. Already mentioned.

An old Granada Reports here, featuring a young Dick Madeley and the late, great Anthony H Wilson...

He'll be missed, he really will
