Goodnight from him

Ronnie Barker has died :-(

ETA: Surfing around, there are various links to best lines and memories, but this made me cry laughing: "Still remember my father's horrified face as Ronnie Barker and Corbett, dressed as Mandarins, sang "Over China, over China, over China - Town". I was JUST old enough to realised that this was very naughty indeed."

That's sad news. He figures large in my TV memories from when I was growing up, and I think he would figure large in any history of British comedy. I'm sad that we've lost him.
