Paid Members Carbomb Posted March 10, 2023 Paid Members Posted March 10, 2023 Wait, what did Shatner (not) do? I've not heard about this before.
Paid Members Surf Digby Posted March 11, 2023 Paid Members Posted March 11, 2023 Quote Star Trek actor William Shatner was once investigated by police as a murder suspect after his alcoholic wife drowned in a pool. In his new autobiography, Up Till Now, Shatner explains how he tried desperately to save wife Nerine Kidd after finding her floating face down in their home pool - only to discover she was dead. And the grief-stricken star, who shot to fame as Captain Kirk in the original 1960s TV show, was further devastated when a detective at the scene told him: "If there is any hint of foul play, you are the first suspect." Shatner writes that he replied: "What are you talking about? This is the woman I loved more than my life. I wouldn't hurt her." Kidd's death marked the end of a marriage the 77-year-old insists was made tumultuous by his wife's cocaine abuse. He adds: "I was so frustrated, so angry. We were so close to a wonderful life together but we just couldn't get there... "And then to see her drunk... to see our life together being shattered. I would sit in our house and cry. I remember sitting in a chair one morning, my hands over my eyes, sobbing." A coroner eventually ruled that actress Kidd, 40, died accidentally after she had been drinking by the pool and slipped, hitting her head and falling unconscious into the pool. Considering what a sci-fi nerd and celebrity gossip monger I am, I have no memory of this.
Keith Houchen Posted March 15, 2023 Posted March 15, 2023 Singer / songwriter Bobby Caldwell has died, you may not know him but he’s been sampled loads. You might recognise this one.

Paid Members Jazzy G Posted March 16, 2023 Paid Members Posted March 16, 2023 I thought more of this one.

I know she was West Ham Dildo Brother’s daughter but that’s a bit harsh!! Still, should be an easier tribute for Plexy as he can just use a catalogue and then use it to clean up afterwards.
