RIP...a decent age.

Quite a character - RIP David.

I met him a few times - a lovely man.

Oh dear. How sad .This good gentleman lived in Sutton Surrey as a lad.
He attended Cheam High School. He and his family where absent when his house received a direct hit from a V.1. Doodlebug.
Our eldest son was supposed to be the meeter and greeter at his old school when Mr Bellamy paid a visit.
Unfortunately our son waited at the Main school gate and Mr Bellamy arrived at the back entrance. What a let down. :-)

I liked him, RIP David.

I think it was hard not to like him...a real character, too.

Very saddened.

Can’t ever remember him being called an environmentalist in his hay day. A naturalist, yes

[Bazile]

Remember Lenny Henry impersonating David Bellamy on Tiswas ?

Ahhh, nice man.

// Can’t ever remember him being called an environmentalist in his hay day. A naturalist, yes//

that was because he thought Global warming was poppy-cock
which is kinda funny for an environmentalist

later said this had cost him his career - well howdy doody and he can now reflect on his sins in a the hot chamber

[Mozz71]

I thought he was primarily a botanist, but I may be wrong.

//he can now reflect on his sins in a the hot chamber//

What? Being a climate change sceptic is enough to condemn you to eternal damnation?

God's getting strict.

Kinda makes you wonder why he doesn't just fix all the damage and lay a plague of boils on the PR department at Volkswagen.

Call it quits and start again.

[Lie-in King]

Sad news - RIP David.

[ladybirder]

Yes indeed, very sad, I remember him well. RIP.

Very likable. Good age though. RIP David.
