Loved It Ain't Half Hot Mum (never to be seen again) and even Never The Twain.  RIP.

88, not a bad age considering he’d been ill for a long time. My wife treated him for cancer when she was nursing and says he was a genuinely lovely bloke, nothing like the characters he played. RIP.

Ahh, yes I loved It Ain't although many years since it was repeated. Have been known to do my own tuneless version as a mic soundcheck. Sing it Lofty.
RIP.

RIP: He was just brilliant in "It Ain't Half Hot Mum"..

However, I do remember as a young lad though back in the early 70's,  that I found him unnerving cos he was just a bit too much like my secondry school PE teacher (who scared the living shit out of me as young teenager..cos they belted you bloody hard in them days)

Indeed a sad loss and great talent.

After He and Don Estelle had thier hit single they did a summer season. They were very good as you would expect from old school professionals.

RIP

He lived below my dad's flat in Swansea marina in about 1994. I used to crash there at the weekends when dad was back in Dorset and he complained one time because I was playing the Manics "Holy Bible" at full tilt for about 29 hours flat whilst off my tits 

Lovely guy when. I went an apologised on the Sunday night - offered me a brew which I declined because I was a cocky little twat.

Wish I'd said yes now
