Another light gone out in the world. Such a brilliantly clever and funny man who will be sorely missed.

Gone just when we need him most. In a world where you can't say anything unless someone is offended and people are 'cancelled' by the woke he said the unsayable with a smile.

It’s a sad loss I watched him when I was younger what a colourful character he was. Recently saw him on Rick Steins Cornwall he came across as a nice down to earth person.

They are doing some really good tributes to him on our news channels. He was a breath of fresh air and cut through the ‘perpetually offended’ that seems to be the norm these days.
Goodnight possum!

When we moved to Suffolk in the early seventies we lived in a very pretty thatched cottage and drove a Morris Minor estate.

According to Dame Edna, people in half timbered houses drove half timbered cars! 😂

RIP Barry.
