RIP Keith - you always had a smile.

[andy-hughes]

That's really sad, he came across as a really likeable guy.

He was like Tony Blackburn, happy to embrace his 'loveable numpty' image because he was shrewd enough to know where a successful career could be found.

[Islay]

Fond memories of when I was a child watching him - he came across really genuine and friendly.

Pulmonary fibrosis is a dreadful condition, it killed a good friend of mine.

Can't believe it is 17 years since he was in Naked Jungle. RIP, Keith.

[jakep]

RIP Keith.

[maggiebee]

My son and daughter will be devastated at this news. He was one of their favourites. RIP Keith, you made many people happy.

R.I.P. MR Chegwin... I have fond memories of you being larger than life.

[EcclesCake]

He entertained me through my childhood but as an adult my view slowly changed. It was confirmed last year when I saw him at the local county show ground with a blonde bombshell on each arm, it was a somewhat creepy sight.

[Arksided]

.. are you sure it wasn't Pat Sharpe. He'll give anyone the chills that fella.

[hc4361]

As far as I know there has been no scandal about him and has been married to the same woman for 17 years.

[yogi-bear]

I was very sad on hearing this news earlier....a true gentleman, a genuinely nice and likeable guy.
Rest peacefully, Keith.
