He got to a fairly incredible 95. An utterly unique character, I remember at a Royal Variety performance he climbed down from the circle into the crowd, and he must have been about 80 at the time.

Apparently he was in a film in 2008, despite advanced dementia. That'd be worth digging out.

Anyway, RIP and all that.

I haven't seen anything of his in ages, but as a lad I often watched his films when they were repeated on the tele and I've got fond memories of those times.

He had a good old run, though.

I couldn't stand him. Fair play and all that though.

Fucking Gutted.

Giant fan of his, his films are perfect Sunday afternoon fare. Great innings, and according to my mate who caddied for him at Carden Park he was a true gent. I raise my glass.

I don't think I've ever seen anything featuring him, aside from possibly an episode or two of Summer Wine.

Fair play to the bloke for making 95, though.
