I love listening to him on the radio, currently ISIRTA as well as watching The Goodies.
Will miss him from ISIHAC with his singing

Terribly sad.  And Sir Stirling Moss as well.
I try to take one day at a time, but sometimes several days all attack me at once...

So sad, he was one of the funniest chaps on TV before all the dross we have to put up with nowadays.

I'll buy a 'Goodies' DVD to celebrate such a lovely, man.

He made David Frost important, and did wonders for some superb radio comedy...

I always thought of Tim Brooke-Taylor as being young, but he was just young at heart and appearance. He'll be greatly missed.
Stirling Moss was a legend in his own lifetime. I remember his answer to 'What's a dangerous speed?" - 31 miles an hour on a 30 miles an hour bend.

It's a true story that Stirling Moss was actually stopped for speeding by Merseyside police, and was asked the standard question at the time: 'Who do you think you are, Stirling Moss?'

Took some time to convince the traffic cop, but he was fined anyway.  :nowink:
