    A fine actor and his comedic acting will be sorely missed. They don't make actors like him unfortunately anymore :( R.I.P. Bill Tarmey.

    No one knows who i'm talking about here in London, I honestly think more people watch it in Ireland than in England (well London anyway)

    Thats the "I never watch soaps" brigade. Funny how they're almost always aware of current plotlines when pushed a bit.

    I remember my mother and sister balling their eyes out when Bobby died in Dallas. Turns out their tears were wasted, he was just having a shower. :pac:

    I would have thought he was older than 71. It's a shame he didn't get to enjoy his retirement for longer.
