Sajmon Berns pre tri meseca je pronađen mrtav u 53. godini, na ulicama Liverpula. Pretpostavilo se da se glumac smrzao, a nakon određenog vremena nalazi su potvrdili da je glumac nastradao od mešavine alkohola i hladnoće.

Kako prenose strani mediji, Berns je uneo veću količinu alkohola u sebe, a nakon toga je zaspao na ulicama Liverpula.

 

Via The Mirror We have some more sad news to deliver you guys. The body of the Teletubbies actor who played #TinkyWinky was discovered near Liverpool waterfront last week. Police have confirmed they found #SimonSheltonBarnes's body at around 7.30am on January 17. The trained dancer and choreographer, who played much-loved Tinky Winky in the hit children's show, died suddenly while visiting the city from his home in Ampthill, Bedfordshire. The dad-of-three's death is not being treated as suspicious by police and they say the tragic incident is now being handled by coroners. Barnes had just celebrated his 52nd birthday 4 days before his death. #RIPSimonSheltonBarnes #RIPTinkyWinky Thank you for contributing something fun and educational to our childhood.
