Madeleine McCann. Probably.

He was talking about people that people actually give half a shit about

Just a few that have either "gone too soon" or were genuine heavyweights in the worlds of entertainment and life in general. Not so much stars or celebrities, but well known, and in some cases, well respected people.

And Shambo.

David Cronenberg

Well, there's this list: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deaths_in_2007

But most of these people I've never heard of!

Best Mate (the race horse)

I have no idea who Shambo is/was.

It amazes me every month when "The Sky At Night" comes round and Patrick Moore is still alive.

Similarly I had £60 stolen from my bank account last night. Some swine withdrew it from the HBOS in Derry's Cross, Plymouth at 00:10 then went on a whirlwind tour across the top shelf of a certain club - they later transplanted their hangover into my brain (mind meld I believe) - which I then woke up with this afternoon!

I won't report the theft as I appear to lack an alibi for the period in question. :roll:

Steve Fosset, one way or another.

He was interviewed on Hospital Radio Pulse 1350AM a few times live on the phone a couple of years back.
