TV Director Paul Stewart Laing Dies at 83

Comedian Duncan Norvelle, known for his catchphrase 'chase me,' has died at the age of 66 after suffering from a chest infection and sepsis. His partner and children confirmed that he passed away peacefully in the hospital, where he had been admitted two weeks prior. Norvelle gained fame in the 1980s with appearances on popular TV shows and was remembered for his clean comedic style. Meanwhile, TV director Paul Stewart Laing, who played a significant role in launching the careers of stars like Lenny Henry and Victoria Wood, died at 83 from sepsis following gallbladder surgery. An inquest revealed Laing developed septicemia due to complications from the surgery, which ultimately led to cardiac arrest during emergency intervention. Both entertainers leave behind a legacy in British television and comedy that will be missed.
