    Ive first seen the news here and am very surprised because I thought he was healthy for his age and had a while to go yet.... like showbiz rejuventates someone and he kept working.

    I grew up on the generation game and of course he had a career in the variety halls long before that

    I like to think there is a golf match somewhere and he is still having a laugh with the usual gang.

    Didnt he do well

    Yup, to think he performed at Glastonbury only 4 years ago, and took it by storm... I knew he hadn't been well, though.
