‘Tremendous Knowledge’ Dave Rainford has died

This one seems to have a gone under the radar, and I feel like it was worth a mention as he was on screens most nights not so long ago. He’d been ill for a while which is why he hasn’t been on the most recent (and reportedly last) series of Eggheads.

I hadn’t realised he was £250,000 winner on Millionaire.

Sad news- Being primarily located in Manchester, I met Dave a number of times through the years, lovely bloke, incredibly intelligent- in shock at this passing. He was only 51, my condolences go to his wife and daughter.
