Goon, but not forgotten.

Goon, but not forgotten.

Bravo! I think Eric would have liked that sentiment, given the circumstances.

An emptying pool of talent sadly, not many of his era left, down to the like of Barry Cryer and John Cleese; age is not all its cracked up to be.

 

[Laurentius]

A true giant of 20th century comedy.

Off to meet his twin sister Hattie Jacques. I remember him from when I was a kid and he was the spitting image of my dads best friend.

Rip Eric.

The 'Sykes' series from the 70's is a fond memory for me, it was one of the shows I enjoyed with mom and dad and there weren't many shows then a teenager enjoyed with his parents apart from Morcombe & Wise and Rowan & Martin perhaps. Gentle humour seems sadly missing from entertainment these days.

I am very glad to say I was one of the millions


He will be sadly missed , but I bet he is having a laugh right now with his old mate Spike Milligan
