Dibnah is Dead :-(
Subject: Dibnah is Dead :-(
From: Terry S Date: 06/11/04 19:06 GMT Standard Time Message-id: TV steeplejack Fred Dibnah, 66, has lost his three-year fight against cancer only weeks after filming his final television series. Bolton-born Mr Dibnah, who became an unlikely celebrity, spurned treatment to tour the UK on a traction engine as part of a 12-part BBC Two series. Mr Dibnah cancelled all engagements in September after he was taken ill during filming Made In Britain. He died on Saturday surrounded by friends and family at Bolton Hospice. Bugger. He was a top bloke and a real character. He'll be missed. -- Dave Baker - Puma Race Engines (www.pumaracing.co.uk) |
