Sad news. He was not very well known here in the states, but my wife and I did enjoy him in As Time Goes By on BBC America.

He was great. My personal favourite was Jimmy in Reginald Perrin. He was the best one in it. Somehow after the show ended Jimmy ended up dealing with international trade . " Bit of a cock up on the Brexit front"

Shame, he was a fine comic actor, he was superb in "The Kipper and the Corpse" episode of Fawlty Towers

I always liked him and yes, he was as usual excellent as the bizarrely sausages-obsessed doctor. The final shot of him is wonderful, frying sausages himself, with a pleased look on his face.

Sad news for fans of early Strawbs.
Tony Hooper, who was an integral member on the band's first five albums, died yesterday.
He was 77.
From what I read, he was being treated for oral cancer and contracted C-19 while in hospital.
The music and his contributions will certainly live on in my heart.

Diego Maradona.
Now there's the passing of a legend. Flawed genius, larger than life. What an unbelievably huge character to be lost from the football world. RIP. Too young.

He took a lot of drugs after his career ended.

And during his career I suspect. Still, he leaves a Maradona sized hole in the world that no one can fill.

Had his troubles but such a great footballer

I watched "The Hand Of God" documentary last night. I don't think it was very appropriate. Ex England footballers re watching the 1986 quarter final. Many calling him a cheat and how gutted they feel. I guess I was pretty gutted at the time but they all bloody cheat. Maradona was right when he said it was a trick , part of the game. All footballers dive , claim penalties , hand ball, foul, argue with the about stuff they know is wrong. Look at Thiery Henry and his hand ball a few years ago. It's bit rich when professional footballers complain about others cheating!! Apart from Gary Liniker of course who never cheated . Ironically he was the only one who didn't hold a grudge.

I did not know him in person but it is a shock to hear of a forum member passing like that. He seemed like a genuine, nice guy from my limited interaction on here. RIP.

I agree with thewatcher that even when you don't personally know members they become familiar through their posts and it's a shock to learn they've died. I liked Ned's comments and shall miss him. Squigelyfox thanks for letting us know.
