I knew he was old but didn't think he was that old. Top fella by all accounts and will be fondly remembered.

The Extras episode with him in never fails to raise a smile.

"Corbett. Always bloody Corbett."

He once joked: "It was revealed in a government survey published today that the Prime Minister is doing the work of two men, Laurel and Hardy."

RIP Ronnie.

RIP to one of the greatest stand up comedians in the past 60 years!

Here are just a few of his one liners......................................



"After a series of crimes in the Glasgow area, Chief Inspector McTavish has announced that he is looking for a man with one eye. If he doesn't find him, he's going to use both eyes."

"A juggernaut of onions has shed its load all over the M1. Motorists are advised to find a hard shoulder to cry on."

"French wine growers fear that this year's vintage may be entirely spoiled due to the grape treaders' sit-in.

"A cement mixer collided with a prison van on the Kingston by-pass. Motorists are asked to be on the look-out for 16 hardened criminals."

"We will be talking to an out-of-work contortionist who says he can no longer make ends meet."

"We've just heard that in the English Channel, a ship carrying red paint has collided with a ship carrying purple paint. It is believed that both crews have been marooned."

"There was a fire at the main Inland Revenue office in London today, but it was put out before any serious good was done."

"We'll be talking to a car designer who's crossed a Toyota with Quasimodo and come up with the Hatchback of Notre Dame."

"All those who believe in psychokinesis raise my right hand."



For such a small man he had an enormous aura about him & of course his wit was deadly.

I was fortunate enough to have met him a good few years ago at a charity golf match & he was delightful & not in the least pretentious, just came across as a nice friendly person

not being funny, but he was pretty old wasn't he?

its not as if death is popping up and taking everyone in their early life / careers....
