"Language Timothy"

To see the genius of his comic acting and timing, you just have to watch the 'Four candles' or 'Mastermind' sketches'


RIP

A much loved, very underrated comic genius. Now both Ronnies are gone.

"So it's goodbye from him and goodbye from me"

R.I.P. wee Ronnie.

Really entertaining and funny guy,so sad to hear of this.

I still laugh whenever I see him on the Peter Kay Amarillo video and that advert for those farm foods has never been the same since he stopped doing them and Fern Britton took over.

Really sad, R.I.P.

I watched "The Many Faces of Ronnie Corbett" on BBC2 on Thursday night. I wondered how they managed to put a tribute together so fast, but when I looked it up, I found that it had already been on at New Year. So I suppose that counts as paying tribute while he was still alive. But I would bet more people watched it on Thursday than did at New Year. It's not until they are gone that we truly appreciate them. :(
