Oh how sad. One of my favourites. My son and I used to love watching him and 'Ade' Edmondson in 'Bottom'. Hilarious schoolboy stuff for all us grown-up schoolboys.

RIP sir.

Lord Flashheart, Alan B'Stard, Rik...... so many great characters. Also, his reading of Roald Dahl books on Jackanory was amazing.

A comedy genius. RIP.
