2016 Deathlist

Recommended Posts

6 years ago Alf lol

 

 

Well aware of that, Facecloth. It was an attempted joke ("another legend" v. "another leg end" v. foot :tumbleweed:).

 

I was quite sad when he went, having spent every evening for a month persuading the voters of Norwich to make him PM in 1983. Started off with 2 Labour seats, ended up with 2 Tories.  :/

He had a bit of a raw deal with the media focussing on his 'dress sense' rather than his policies, good or bad, bit of a deja vu re Corbyn

With hindsight, that 1983 manifesto could never have won an election. Foot was a much better speaker than Corbyn, Cameron or almost any current-day politician, though.

 

In his later years, my Dad often used to see him in local second-hand bookshops - and once saw people helping him up after he'd fallen over on Hampstead Heath.

 

To me, Corbyn seems to have quite a nice line in "smart casual", but then I'm a notorious scruff! I don't trust people who dress too smartly. I wonder what they're up to.

Bert Kwouk has died aged 85 - possibly best known for being on Harry Hill!

 

Probably more famous for the Pink Panther, like Rico said, the Last of the Summer Wine, a couple of Bond films and Banzai than he was Harry Hill.

It was more of a visual pun. He was a drummer which involves hitting things with sticks to make a noise.

 

 

Yes, I got your joke. I was just piggybacking it to make my own. Surely both jokes are auditory, not visual, though?

 

Oh! Nevermind! As Kurt Cobain said to Dave Grohl.....
