I just heard on the late night news,  that Jeffrey Archer has now died.
He was 86,  and had been battling prostate cancer.

Crumbs.

Read a couple of his books, which were ok.

Can't remember too much about his politics other that the Private Eye giving him much stick.

But, condolences to his family.

So sad, a great storyteller.
Just ordered his latest book from the library, Adam and Eve....my reservation is 14th of 14, it may be a while....!!

We like his books  I often reread them .
Ah well he had an eventful life and a good innings

I read some of his books too ... enjoyed them.
He sold over 300 million books. That's impressive.

What happened to not speaking ill of the dead ? 

BBC news 
" Jeffrey Archer : successful novelist , disgraced politician and convicted liar."

I read a few when I was younger, may revisit them.  RIP Jeffrey Archer

I expect nothing less from the BBC these days. Truth when it suits them.

Too true...

Maybe they were jealous that he never worked for them, as he would have fitted in rather well.
