I used to watch Boon all the time. He can't have been that old either.

Very sad news. He was a great actor.

Boon was cool. Poor guy.

I didn't see this until today, but it is very sad. I don't remember Boon, and no longer watch EastEnders, but for me he'll always be the poacher in my favourite film, Withnail & I.

Well, at least he got a good send off, in the pub, with people who loved him, the way I would want it.
