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."

My pet favourite was Open All Hours but frankly he did so much good work, both as writer and performer. Not to mention, as too many don't, that he was one of the greatest character actors of his time, straight or comic.
