He didn't die at a nursing home...he died peacefully at home according to his wife and I expect she knows better than anyone.

A great comic actor. Funnily enough I was watching a film from 1963 - 'Father Came Too', which had Ronnie Barker in it. And I was only thinking 'there's a few in this that are still alive' and I was thinking of Stanley Baxter and Leslie Philips....

:) I knew him quite well, he lived a couple of miles from here.He was a miserable bugger for a comedian.His antique shop in Chipping Norton was next door to The Crown and Cushion Hotel owned by the late great Keith Moon.

Gutted.

 

But at least we'll get loads of repeats.

This is my favourite:

 

F.U.N.E.X.?

S.V.F.X.

F.U.N.E.M.?

S.V.F.M.

etc

 

And "Four candles" of course

 

He was a very clever & funny man.
