Emyr Roberts, 82, a poet and the former Archdruid of Wales, has moved on, in to the Valley of Death.
What are heavy? Sea-sand and sorrow;
What are brief? Today and tomorrow;
What are frail? Spring blossoms and youth;
What are deep? The ocean and truth.

Surely the Flying Pickets' support for left-wing movements in the early 80s means he should be eulogised in "Political Frailty" as well?

Ah, but he also appeared in Corrie, Eastenders and Pobol Y Quim so maybe his death should be listed in the Betty Driver Memorial Superstar Soapstar thread.
