So sad. I loved the Phantom Raspberry Blower of Old London Town sketches. I'd get my grandfather to mimic this every time I saw him LOL!! RIP Much happiness Debi |

As I said on the Memories thread I loved Ronnie Barker I think he was a comedy genius. There will never be the likes of him again. Very sad day. RIP Ronnie Barker Comic Genius. Pat x |

I thought he may be ill ... as last week the other Ronnie collected an award on behalf of both of them ... and I thought it strange then. Wasn't watching properly, so please don't ask what award or what for ! RIP Ronnie ... you've made me laugh, many times. Elaine :-( |

One of the finest comedians, script-writers and performer ever seen. A sad loss to the world of entertainment and the world at large. Thanks for the memories, Ronnie! CB >|< |
