Disgraced Australian former detective and convicted murderer Roger Rogerson has died aged 83.

The former Sydney detective and killer cop died days after suffering a brain aneurysm in his cell at Long Bay prison in Sydney.

During a notorious career spanning decades, Rogerson lived a double life as a police officer and a deadly criminal.

Met him a few times. Incredibly charismatic but pure evil.

Steve Harley, the front man of Cockney Rebel, who has died aged 73 of cancer, was much more than a one-hit wonder, but his sole UK chart-topper defined his career.

Such as?

I’ll be damned if I can remember anything else he has done in music, or life in general for that matter.

Just out of curiosity, how well did you know him 🙄

And talking of Musicals did you know that Phil Collins was the original Artful Dodger is the West End production of Oliver, not just rehearsed for the part but actually starred in the role.

The reason this fact remains largely unknown is due to him being famous for more than just one song
