    Sad to read about this on Sky.
    Great comedian who I grew up watching with the Goodies and Monty Python amongst others.
    RIP

    I just read it. Very sad.
    I am a bit too young to have ever seen them, (Not even sure they showed reruns), but I know who he was. Saw a lot of classic clips.. Very funny.
    R.I.P.

    He was my favourite Goodie, lots of happy childhood memories of Goodies-induced laughter in our house :o

    Loved the Goodies. Can't see them being rerun anytime soon. There was a lot of blackface and very unpc jokes in the show.
