Just as well I didn't mention Ned Sherrin died yesterday

Anyone remember a very funny sketch by Spitting Image on dear old Ronnie? They portraied him as a sort of Andrew Lloyd Webber performing his "Requium" which funnily enough sounded like a combo of Two Ronnies/AYBS/LOTSW etc...... Clever.

Now he was worthy of a mention. The godfather of satire.

Well, it's Charlton Life. They will have heard of Blankty Blank but not TW3 ; - )

I think that it's harsh to suggest that Ronnie Hazelhurst's death isn't worth of a mention. Personally i think it would be more appropriate just to ignore the thread rather than be disrespectful.

He was brilliant in his field!

RIP

Agreed.

LINK: He didn't write the S club 7 song, that was a Wikipedia hoax that just about every obituary journalist fell for!

Absolutely right. Despite the genius of Ronnie Barker I'm sure those musical inserts in the 2 Ronnies wouldn't have been quite the same without Ronnie Hazlehurst, and tired though the series may be the Last of the Summer Wine benefitted from that atmospheric music.

I met him on a couple of occasions and a gentleman he was too. Shame about him being a Lancastrian but we can't all be winners in life's great lottery!
