Wow, it's getting sad/scarey. All my childhood comedians are dying!

What a sad loss........
I'm sure he'd want us to be happy though......
Anyone remember the 'Pappadum rap' ?
He was ACE

What memories he left! Surely "The Two Ronnies" belongs in any Hall of Fame.
My favorite character though was his portrayal of a local shopkeeper with his long-suffering but downtrodden nephew(?)
RIP Ronnie

I heard this and was about to make a thread myself. Bad news. What a funny guy - porridge was true comedy genius. NORMAN STANLEY FLETCHER!

I've got happy memories of watching the Two Ronnies as a kid. Who could forget "The Phantom RaspberryBlower of Old London Town" or "Charley Farley and Piggy Malone". Great stuff.Four candles!
