Not really a games related topic but relevant on a personal level.

The entrepreneur and star of UK show 'The Apprentice' Stuart Baggs died at age 27 on Thursday.

He hired me to film the launch of his new 4G telecomms service on Tuesday. I was probably the last person to contact him via email on Wednesday night re: editing his presentation.

The UK press have asked about the video but it's for his family to decide what to do with it.

Strange days indeed.

That's super sad . I hope prayers are sent his family's way. It's just difficult all around.

How do you feel about it, Gary?

Hi Brian, thanks for asking. well - I didn't get any work done on the Thursday - just couldn't think straight. Shock, I suppose.

His mother has been in touch and I'm going to produce a DVD for Stuart's family of the video presentation. I'll strip out the graphs and animated bits and it'll be purely a memorial piece. First time in seven years shooting video that I've ever been asked to do anything like that.

Needless to say, my kids (20 and 23) got lots of extra love and attention this weekend.

Jesus he was just two years older than me. Was really sad to hear.
