I think they're both alive and according to the Internet Movie Database they are still indeed alive. Click on the names and it gives details about them:

Jon Pertwee is dead tho! Maybe someone is getting them mixed up?

[hopalong]

Jon Pertwee died on 2th May 1996, His cousin Bill Pertwee is stii alive

[bernardo]

Yes definitely both. I have been keeping a list of deaths of fgamous people since 1993, and neither is on it.

You sound like a bundle of laughs, Bernardo!

On a similar vein, Frank Williams, who played the vicar in Dad's Army is stiull alive and wrote his autobiography about 2 years ago. Tho' nearly blind he is still fairly mobile.

It's a sign of the times, I suppose. People used to play "who's dead?" when watching repeats of Dad's Army (oh come on, we've all done it), now they play "who's still alive?".

Don't forget Ian Lavender - so that's four we're up to.

[bernardo]

also still alive:

Colin Bean as Private Sponge
Talfryn Thomas as Private Cheeseman
and loads of extras like Wendy Richard and stuff
