Watching tv presenters ….after they have died ….right or wrong ? / myLot

So, I love quiz shows and I am watching a repeat of “ who wants to be a millionaire ?”. It is a celebrity special and at the moment Lorraine Kelly and John Stapleton are answering the questions….trying to raise money for charity. I know people outside of the UK will not know these people ( they are both well known tv presenters that have been around a long time ). Anyway, John Stapleton died last week…… My question is this ….. Do you think it is right to still be showing these programmes when the people have died ? There, of course is no right or wrong answer ….it is just a matter of opinion …. But I just wonder what do you think ?

There are many shows or gameshows that still show after the host passed away. It could be due to the fact that they were the ones yet to be shown or they are on repeat mode.

It does not matter there is nothing wrong with watching the shows.

As long as it’s not showing them in a bad light, I don’t see anything wrong with it. Did he win big? Most of these celebrities seem to have very little general knowledge, and despite getting easier questions than Joe Public, still bomb out early.
