RIP, famous person

I loved The Goodies when I was there as a young 'un; I was 14, and that might have been exactly the right age to encounter them. Their silliness was charming and their wild sped-up slapstick camera effects were hilarity. There was something adorable about them.

I hadn't heard that. Poor old Tim.

He was also great in 'I'm Sorry I'll Read That Again' with John Cleese amongst others, and a long running panellist on 'I'm Sorry I Haven't a Clue' both on the radio.

I've got all The Goodies DVDs. Time to bring them out again for another viewing.

RIP TB-T.
