I TOLD YOU I WAS ILL...


The French playwrigt Moliere died on stage whilst playing a hypochondriac in his own play Le Malade Imaginaire - The Hypochondriac.

He had been feeling quite unwell that day but his complaints fell on deaf ears as his fellow actors believed he was rehearsing for the play. It is reported that his last words were, "I told you I was ill you bunch of rotten bastards."
