Charlie Chaplin described him as his favourite clown.

Very sad to hear he is gone. One of our great comedians and for such a long time too.

He did well for 95. RIP.
What was the name of the films he did with the Mr Grimsdale character? They really were great films of the times.

BBC were doing so well until the end where they said that there was no call for his type of humour anymore. (or words to the same effect) Idiots.
