That clearly means that "we're of an age", as we're sounding like our parents  :-[

I understand the sentiment, but it is an inevitability of life...

Only ever saw him on "Would I lie to you?" - seemed terrifically self deprecating. RIP.

The brilliance of Mr Barker meant The Two Ronnies was a popular programme on Friday Night when I was a kid, whilst eating our fish and chips.  I think Mr Corbett was lucky to have been able to team up with Mr Barker, and they worked well together.

I used to particularly enjoy the "mini series" in each series, such as The Worm that Turned and the Great Raspberry Blower.  Even now when I see Two Ronnies repeats, it still raises a chuckle...  ...without resorting to foul language, just fantastic comedy and spot on timing.


RIP Mr C, you were a part of my childhood.

Another great comedian that we will likely be talking about in the not too distant future I suspect :(.  A person I had the great pleasure of meeting in his home.

The worm that turned. If memory serves Diana Dors was the busty wench in charge of a bunch of emasculated men.

She may have had her 'knockers' ::) ::).......but I quite liked her. :y
