I have just heard announcement of his death on the news. Only 74? I can remember TWTWTW from so many years ago as probably my first experience of grown up television, political satire and some wonderful sketches. Wonderful Millicant Martin, Lance Percival's calypsos and the cartoonist who died so young - was that Timothy Beardsall? sad

"Remember his TV heyday"? - I was part of it! TW3 was the very first programme that I worked on when I was at the Beeb.
David Frost was a mere slip of a lad grin

Ah... ! but I've read your posts on the "Sex" thread.

Men don't know stuff like that. [nods head sagely]

TW3 great, yes definitely. David Frost? bright boy, but too much in love with himself; king of the bigheads. Raise a glass (or several) to Seamus Heaney, king of the word.
A happy and healthy New Year to all the Gransnetters.
