Heard the name but no idea who he was. The joys of a sheltered life. THINK he was famous for eating hamsters as pictured on the front page of the Sun? Oh yes I remember delivering the Sun to the estates when I was a teenager. Funny paper round that was. Deliver the telegraph one or two times and guardian to all the expensive houses by the river on lower teddington road where we lived then off to Woffington close and surrounds with a load of tabloids specially the sun mirror and news of the world. And the sport. That was my last job. 6am paper round. Would have been 1989ish working from Suthar brothers news agent opposite Hampton Wick station. All that just to get a decent mountain bike!! So unnecessary.

It is a worry but yes I am 45.
I was about 14/15 it could have been '88 actually.
Newsagent is still there I think but no longer S.B's

Freddie lived locally to my younger brother for several years. My brothers daughter was friends with one of Freddieβs children. He was a lovely guy. I also know he suffered from depression. I doubt very much that he ever ate a hamster.
