Just heard on the Beeb that he has died of a heart-attack at his partner's place in Dorset. He was 65.

What a great shame. Thanks for the great memories Keith, rest peacefully.

Great shame but he looked very ill on the TV last night.

A cooking legend RIP

We're certainly getting rid of some celebs today - hopefully Michael McIntyre and Davina McCall can join that list before the day's out.

:thumbsup:

Nice.

Anyway, love Floyd, he was my 1st TV chef.
Star Trek followed by Floyd on Fish, what Thursday tea time was all about.
I used to love 4 appalling recipes, with 1 fantastic dish thrown in.

I always remember him cooking an Italian peasant meal, then saying.
'now in the pot you put a pigs face'. mmm

RIP Keith.

:lolol:

And who could forget his "Quick spin round the ingredients" catchphrase - plus his slightly condescending banter with his long-suffering camara-man?!

Marvelous culinary scenes. :clap2:

Damn sad - I was and am a big fan of his stuff, he was a TV natural. But all that boozing wasn't just for show on the telly and the chap was looking a bit ravaged in any pictures of him recently.

The one where some French battleaxe bollocked him loudly and at great length for having made such a crappy piperade compared to hers was excellent: more fragile egos than his would have stopped filming or certainly never shown it.

Is he to be cremated or .. just lightly grilled ?

I used to LOVE his cooking shows, always made me laugh when he kept sipping the wine and chatting to the cameraman.
