Lovely guy!
My parents took my grandma on her last holiday, she was dying of cancer which she did not know. He drank in the hotel they stayed in. My mother had a quiet word and he spent the whole evening entertaining her. It was a lovely gesture.
I always meant to write to him and thank him.

[Psybbo]

Thank you, now got it on x

[Baldric]

Brilliant, especially as a pianist!
;o)

I'd like to see a whole episode of Blankety Blank with him as host. He was so laid back on it and it was so low tech I loved it!

Did he do celebrity squares too?

[thenry]

Glad you all enyoying it ! I loved his off-key piano playing. You had to be a genius to get it so wrong and still be funny !

[Psybbo]

Thanks Thenry, we enjoyed the rest of it. He was brilliant.

[DTCwordfan]

I enjoyed that too - the piano playing I have seen before but priceless, that one with imploding piano.....

[ladybirder]

I've seen it all before ...
but it bears repeating. He was just wonderful, such a funny man, definitely a cut above.

"I've just had some bad news. It's the Mother in law's funeral tomorrow.
She's cancelled it"

Yes hopkirk, his mother-in-law jokes were hilarious
