Yes he was very good in the role of Trigger, very sad. RIP.

That said it may have a silver lining as they are less likely to try and bring OFAH back for a full run now.... it's time has passed!

Yep, anything to save money

RIP Trigger, legendary british comedy character, very sad news indeed


You just beat me to it Rich



Trigger :And that's what I've done. Maintained it for 20 years. This old brooms had 17 new heads and 14 new handles in its time.

Sid: How the hell can it be the same bloody broom then?

Trigger: Theres the picture. What more proof do you need?

Along with Del's legendary line after he fell through the bar

Del: Drink up Trig, drink up, we're leaving!

Trigger: Aint you gonna try it for them birds?

Del: Nah, nah, you're cramping my style, mate, you're cramping my style!

Both utterly brilliant moments

Shame

Another cancer victim.


Trigger
Alright, Dave?

Rodney
'Ello Trig.

Trigger
I can make you turn your
hands over without
touching you.

Rodney
Eh?

Trigger
I can make you turn your
hands over without
touching you. Hold 'em
out.

Rodney, with a heavy sigh, places the tenners in his
pocket and holds his ands out palms up.

Trigger
No, the other way.

Rodney turns his hands over, palms down.

Trigger
See?
(Handing Rodney
a fiver)
There you go, Dave.

Comedy legend in the Trigger roll in the greatest sitcom to grace out TV screens....R.I.P Trigg, you gave me many laughs growing up

A couple of my favorite quotes..

Trigger: You knew my Grandad Arthur, didn't you Mr Trotter.

Grandad: Yeah, I knew Arthur alright.

Trigger: He was a smashing man, he took care of me when my Mum went.

Rodney: Where was your Dad?

Trigger: He died a couple of years before I was born.



Denzil: It's closed!

Trigger: (Checks watch) Well, it's a bit late, innit?

Del: What d'you mean 'a bit late?' You said it was open twenty-four hours a day!

Trigger: Yeah, but not at night!

Unhappy

:-(

But what a back catalog of comedy gems.

I believe the long awaited new episode(s) of OFAH is still going ahead though.

It will have a moving tribute to Roger Lloyd-Pack.
