And the Wiltshire Farm Foods adverts


It's such a shame people don't pay tribute to these ageing celebs while they are alive

"Language Timothy"

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

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.
