Sir Bruce Forsyth CBE, 1928-2017. Bruce's ashes were laid to rest here by his beloved wife Wilnelia and children Debbie, Julie, Laura, Charlotte, Louisa and JJ. On the stage above, in 1958, Bruce first hosted Sunday Night At The London Palladium and, in 2015, he performed his One Man Show for the very last time, book-ending a career that spanned eight decades. Without question the UK's greatest entertainer, he rests in peace within the sound of music, laughter and dancing… exactly where he would want to be.
