Rick Stein’s Jack Russell ‘Chalky’ has died at the grand old age of 17 (via BBC News)

I always watched Rick Stein’s shows, not mostly for the cooking but almost certainly to see Chalky in action.

He always reminded me of my own dog Patch (pictured left) who, coincidentally (and quite sadly), died 2 years ago this week (January 4th 2006).

Turns out him and Chalky were about the same age.
