Hi All,
Another sad passing the same day 14/03 as Stephen Hawking is Jim Bowen. I remember him from his very funny stand up days on the Comedians and
The Wheel Tappers And Shunters Club appearances, of coarse not to forget his Bull's-eye game show which if honest he is more famous for but an
all-round good guy who will I am sure be missed by many.
Many thanks for your entertainment and fond memories RIP Jim.

How tickled I was.
Hi All,
Surprised nobody has mentioned the passing of the comic with a velvet voice Ken Dodd. I remember him from various times in my life from watching him in B&W on telly with the family and in Colour with the Diddymen series from my school days.
As I grew up I enjoyed him still whenever I saw him on Tv what I regret above all else is never seeing his live show despite him carrying on performing well into his late 70's & Early 80's. By some accounts when the curtain fell and he did an encore he got rather blue :D and would carry on for hours if allowed such was his enthusiasm for pleasing his paying public.
The passing of this all-round entertainer is another passing of childhood and adult memories combined again thank you Doddy for your entertainment you where and always shall be tatyfelareous RIP.
