Just heard this http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-18704...
He was still active until quite recently was'nt he...?
Very sad news, perhaps one of the true greats of British Comedy - and very underrated.
Do yourself a favour and watch this..

Very talented Man, sadly gonna be really missed.
I heard not long ago in a rare interview with him, that he was still writing comedy sketches, but as his eyesight had gone he wrote them long hand with a pen. Unfortunately his secretary who typed them up found the last 3 pages were blank, as his pen had run out of ink. Fortunately he had pressed heavily enough for the imprint to be interpreted. Comic Genius!
