Well, that's what it feels like.
We started with the shock death of David Bowie in January.
Since then we have said goodbye to Alan Rickman, Glenn Frey, Terry Wogan, Frank Kelly aka Father Jack, Paul Daniels, Ronnie Corbett and, only yesterday, Victoria Wood followed by Prince today.
I can't say I am a huge fan of Prince but what the hell is going on?
It's as if God has decided there are too many celebrities and he's getting rid of a few.
However, if that's the case, couldn't he leave us with those and get rid of the non-celebs; the reality brigade? 
Or, perhaps, he's planning a big gig up there and wants the best ones for himself? 
Are there any of these that you will miss?
Dare I ask.... who next?
I was really stunned by Alan Rickman and Victoria Wood. Victoria Wood in particular is a great loss to our screens. Thankfully, there is plenty of material to rerun in tribute to her. I could listen to the Ballad of Barry and Freda time and again.
