00:00The funeral for Liam Payne, former member of One Direction, will be held today on Wednesday 20th
00:06November, more than a month after his tragic death at the age of 31. The private service is expected
00:11to take place in the home counties of South East England, attended by Payne's family, close friends
00:16and former bandmates. When the news of his death broke, we took to the streets of the UK to find
00:21out which celebrity deaths have impacted you the most over the years. Oh a celebrity death impacted
00:26me, I think there's been so many. I think David Bowie in 2016, I thought that was really, that was
00:33terrible. Victoria Wood, I remember when she died, I was in the office and a friend of mine who was
00:38also a big comedy fan said have you seen the news Victoria Wood died and it was so sudden.
00:44For me when I heard Freddie Mercury had died, it had quite an effect on me because I regretted
00:51never seeing him live. Vince, it was Michael. And it was Princess Diana of my day, she did a loss.
01:00The one that touches me the most, it should touch everybody because this person has, I can say, has
01:07affected everybody and that's Michael Jackson. A good drummer from through time. I was going to
01:12say that. Ted Hawkins. But yeah it's only because I met him a few times as well. Olivia Newton-John.
01:16Olivia Newton-John, that was like. I told you. I don't know, it was just weird. Probably Caroline
01:22Flax. Not as bad as Liam Payne's but obviously like it was just very shocking about what happened.
01:30Payne died in Buenos Aires, Argentina after a fall from a third floor hotel balcony.
01:35An autopsy revealed he sustained multiple traumatic injuries along with internal and
01:40external bleeding caused by the fall. In a heartfelt statement following his death,
01:44Payne's family said, We are heartbroken. Liam will forever live in our hearts and
01:49will remember him for his kind, funny and brave soul. He is survived by his parents,
01:53two sisters, his son Bear, whom he shared with singer Cheryl,
01:56and his girlfriend at the time, Kate Cassidy, who's also expected to attend the funeral.
