Paul O’Grady has died.

Thank you for sharing that lovely poem lindiann, it brought tears to my eyes.

Such a huge talent, a good man indeed who brought so much joy to so many . He will be truly missed.

RIP , a lovely man. Go now Paul, and play with the Angels. God Bless.

I actually cried. I really loved his radio two show and listened every Sunday 5/7 and missed it terrible when it was finished. Just heard he was going to boom radio and was delighted. A lovely man and really gone too soon. He was always an advocate for the dogs and the less fortunate. A true gent who will be missed definitely by me.

I was really impressed by him in his programme working with the Salvation Army. It was so sad (and stupid) at the end when they said that he would not be accepted to join because of his sexuality. Awful that they couldn't see past that to the good person he was.

If that’s true, it’s outrageous and ignorant. I should think he was a better Christian than they were.

I haven’t met anyone today who hadn’t been really sad about this 😭😭😭😭

How uplifting to read all the lovely tributes here.
Obviously a well loved man , RIP.

Very sad news, so sudden, he will be missed by so many, thoughts with his family

So wonderful to read all the lovely comments both here and on other social media. RIP Paul, you truly were loved 🥰

There are some lovely stories coming out about Paul. Someone on TV today said that Paul was offered the job as a producer on a show. He apparently said 'I'd love it but I'd rather you advertised it so that everyone gets a fair crack at it.'

A sad loss.
