Marcel Marceau has died at the age of 84.
Can we all show our respect by giving him 60 seconds of noise, please?

I'll be honest. The whole mime thing has always freaked me out a little.
However, for that he probably deserves more respect. If you can convince people to enjoy mime then there's a talent worthy of respect!
For those of you who have never heard of the man, here's a Beeb link:

I take my hat off to any entertainer who can remain popular for most of their lives. Even Ken Dodd. They clearly have a skill and charisma that makes them stand out from the crowd - something few modern entertainers will achieve.
Marcel Marceau had the only spoken line in Mel Brooks' Silent Movie.
He has been an icon.
