Hahaha Lord flashheart! I smiled through the whole scene... WOOF!

Sad news indeed..
Never heard of him but 56 is far too young to die.

My thoughts go to his family and friends.
Oh no. :frown:

I loved The Young Ones and Bottom. Quite a young age to die too.
I've never heard of him, but RIP.

The Young Ones was brilliant.

"Rick, man, that was really heavy, man. My grandfather made that guitar entirely out of matchsticks on his death bed."

Ohhh my god, the man is a legend! I spent my time as a child watching him on the young ones and on bottom with my father, when I was really too youn to be watching such shows! Great memories!

Agreed, that was probably the best episode of that series.
Aw that's so sad. Watching the young ones will not be the same now. :frown:

he would have been tickled by this.
Night-Night, Sleep Tight. Hope the bed bugs do not bite. If they do, do a poo. Put it in a Cornish Stew. Into the ambulance, dring-dring-dring! Fish trousers elephant in Peking. Saw a busy bee; Diddle-diddle-dee. Daddy's an accountant just like me. Night-Night, God Bless.
Am I the only one who had never heard of him until 5 minutes ago?
