Sir Bruce Forsyth CBE, 1929 - 2017. Bruce's ashes were laid to rest here by his beloved wife Wilnelia and children Debbie, Julia, 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.
Exactly a year after he died, Forsyth's ashes were laid to rest under the stage at the London Palladium in a private ceremony, and a blue plaque was erected on the wall there. The text of the plaque comes from the Daily Mail.
Its position "under the stage" probably means we will never get our own photo of this plaque.
After we published Andrew Behan found this photo of the plaque at the website of its makers, Sign Cast. They have kindly allowed us to use the image here.
Site: London Palladium - interior (3 memorials)
