Very sad to see he died of a heart attack yesterday , brought us some great films in the 80's such as the breakfast club , ferris bueller and weird science to name just three.

I'm sat indoors not well hoping I'll be ok to go to the match tomorrow whilst watching planes , trains and automobiles.

    Drug abusers and heavily overweight people tend to go young, too.

    What has Robbie Williams done to deserve an early exit?

    This for me is sadder than Mr Jackson going, I will asssociate growing up with watching John Hughes' films, in particular Ferris Buellar, great films and very sad to hear this. RIP.

    I've seen Ferris Bueller's Day Off more times than I care to remember, I can probably quote it line by line.

    R.I.P John Hughes

    "heeeeeyyy batter, batter, batter, swing batter"

    "I heard that you were feeling ill, headache, fever & a chill, I came right here to restore your pluck, cos I'm the nurse that loves to ....." :0)

    Got home from work to find that my girlfriend has put her signed picture of the Breakfast Club on the bathroom wall. What a tribute?!

    RIP John
