:( indeed. I grew up on my father's Spike/Goon ("He's fallen in the
water!" ) impressions (they both had manic depression in common) and
his nonsense verse - some of which I can recite to this day, and I
have all his memoirs.
Extremely funny man. I've particularly enjoyed his guest appearances
on shows over the last few years - my favourite had to be seeing him
out-talk Paul Merton (an amazing feat in itself) and try and put
Portsmouth into Room 101.
