I've witnessed first hand with my dear mother what clinical depression can do to a person and what a cruel illness it is. The word depressed gets banded about all too often these days, but being in a bad place because of circumstances in your life and being clinically depressed are two very different things.
I feel for my mum and anyone who has this terrible condition, she has no escape, she has no hope and has had her life taken from her. RIP to Liam and best wishes to anyone reading this who is suffering. Lee. |

Yes Poppy, the odious upper class Balding saw fit to embarrass Liam by drawing attention to the gaping state of his teeth by stating that he could now afford to have them fixed. The blue-blooded Balding probably still doesn't understand how offensive her remarks were! Why the BBC continue to employ this ridiculously over-rated throwback waste of space is one of life's mysteries!

i thought he said he wasn't embarrassed by her comments and had his teeth repaired free because of the publicity . Yep, that was pretty much the gist of it; I could never understand why a couple got their knickers in a twist over what Clare Balding said. It was very cringy at the time but clearly no malice was intended, it was a bit of banter that didn't really work and Liam Tredwell being the class act that he was, certainly wasn't going to be bothered by it, on the greatest day of his life. Well said, Nonaynever, depression is such a terrible illness, one of my best mates TWO sisters (both of them!) have been horrendously effected by it; really not taking part in life now at all and just existing at best. Awful when I think back to them in their twenties and how beautiful they were. |

by all accounts a cheerful guy , and the way he took baldings comments said so much about his attitude and personality , in a world of folk waiting to be offended he took it with humour tragic loss of a good person , RIP Liam |
