Shame... very sad!

Always loved his partnership with Gene Wilder.

RIP Richard!

PS - just the other day i was thinking whatever happened to him after seeing Moving in a local video shop.

Very funny man, I have his stand up act on DVD. Rest In Peace.

Was just reading this online, made me think of the story about when The Guardian got modern comedians together to ask him one question. Being the wanker that he is Jason Byrne really shamed the nation.

" Jason Byrne: You talk about Muhammad Ali in your latest DVD and how frightening it was to be in the ring with him. But do you reckon you could beat him now that the two of you shake like maracas?"

Idiot should be shot. I've a couple of Audio CDs of Priors stuff and some of it's up there (almost) with Bill Hicks.

Awh, shame.:(

Almost 15 seconds.:(

Think of all those websites they're gonna have to pull down...:eek:

No disrespect. He was one of the best...

I heard it was their 3rd or 4th story at ten so I knew they weren't going to give it much. Madonna having a fall gets 5 minutes and the lead story and a comic genius gets 15 seconds. Sky News are like the Daily Sun of news broadcasting.

Has anyone got his other DVD (not the Live In Concert one, t'udder one)? What year did he do it in and is it as good as Live In Concert?

Blisterman

This is sad. Well, at least he won't have to suffer any more.
I made a thread in Films before I saw this.

Sparky

damn it, he was so funny

The last film i just seen him in recent was The Toy http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0084809/

One of the finest stand-up comedians America has ever produced.

He will be sorely missed.

RIP

Definantly one of my favourites also.. found myself actually over the last few weeks using and thinking of random quotes from it:

Capt. Braddock: Okay no more bullsh*t
[to Dave, talking fast]
Capt. Braddock: was there or wasn't there a woman?
Dave: Are you serious?
Capt. Braddock: Yes I'm goddamn serious.
Dave: Fuzzy Wuzzy was a woman?

And also:

"WHAT DO YOU MEAN I'M NOT WHITE?!... DOES DAD KNOW?!"

Very sad occasion today , a genious .

Sorely missed from a big fan.
