Just saw this on BBC.

Classic headline when he told his story fighting alcoholism:

Cheggers Cant Be Boozers


RIP Keith.

I think that was the title of his autobiography. He was very frank about his drink problem.

RIP Keith.

I have hazy memories of him on Kids TV in my early childhood. But I remember him more on The Big Breakfast in the days of Chris Evans and Gabby Roslin usually getting ready for school. Cheggers was always on location knocking on peoples' doors on estate after they asked "Where are you Cheggers?"

Really shocked to hear this sad news earlier when I was in my car. Still such a young man. 60 is no age to die. Cheggers RIP!
