REMEMBERING IAN DURY

For those of you who don't know, musician Ian Dury has lost his long 
and public battle against cancer of the liver at the age of 57.

The singer died peacfully at his home on Monday with his family, his
record company East Central One, said.

Despite his illness, Dury continued to work, helping children's aid
organisations and appearing on TV.

Jo Bexley who worked with Dury for the UN children's organisation
Unicef, said the star's outlook was always positive.

I know that many of you subscribed to the MIS are big Blockheads fans
and would want to know of the following two shows which are to be
aired in the UK.

News just in from Andrew Langmead is that BBC2 are repeating the 
documentary `Ian Dury - On My Life` this evening (Saturday) at 
11.30pm. If you didn't catch this first time, don't miss it now. 
You'll laugh and cry, but you'll definitely enjoy it. It's a fine 
tribute to a fine man.

Don't forget that this afternon's edition of, TOTP2 is dedicated to
Uncle Ian too. The show starts at 5:00pm.

Take care,

Robert Hazelby (MIS Online Editor)
