BBC actually interrupted their programmes to announce it

That's is quite old fashioned. That must be the first time since the Queen Mother was brown bread?

Appears it was only BBC 1 that did it. ITV decided it could wait for 20mins so people could see the latest from 'the jungle'

I'd rather the wealth of the population be like this

Unsurprising but very sad news nonetheless. I remember a saffa in my year 3 class being very proud that the country had a new flag and political situation. Little did I know of the significance of the event at the time. May Mandelas legacy live long beyond us.

Mandela that well know celebrity.

[CtS]

He's a celebrity, get him out of here.

[BobbyBiscuit]

Nelson Mandela is probably the bravest man to live in modern ages.  That alone should bring him respect, but then you look at what he was fighting for, when he was fighting for it, and consequently who he was fighting against for it... and it makes you respect him even more. 

 

He forgave the people who wronged him in almost the worst way imaginable.  The people in our country can't even respect each other when a bona fide tragedy strikes.

Seemingly found with a needle in his arm.

[Tyrant]

Who was he?

[tom_widdows]

Who was he?

 

Won the Oscar for playing Truman Capote in 2005

 

Bad guy from Mission Impossible 3

 

Believe he is also quite an important character in the hunger games series so a bit of a casting headache
