My favourite sketch was an art class with him posing as a greek statue and a bowl of marbles in his lap. He got a little .....err...... excited at a shapely young student artist and the bowl of marbles flew into the air spilling them everywhere. I can't find it now but I'm sure I posted it in AB Jokes a year or so back. :-(

They could raise huge laughs without resorting to bad language. I saw them in pantomime and have never laughed so much in my life. They had the kids laughing at slapstick and the parents laughing at their little 'innuendos'. RIP bobbi

Teacake not sure what your point it - he was taken to hospital when he started having breathing problems before being diagnosed with Covid-19. Why would you take someone to hospital before they had breathing problems?

This is so sad.
Another "great" dying at the hands of Covid - the death of Tim Brooke-Taylor hit me very hard. I still haven't got over it.
Bobby Ball inspired my boyfriend at the time, to buy a pair of red braces, and yes, people approached him and quoted Bobby's catchphrases.
My boyfriend stopped wearing them due to people's consistent twanging of the said braces, shouting "Rock on Tommy!", thinking they were the first person to ever quote the line.
He ended up with bruises all over his ribs!
