I hope Billy Connelly does the eulogy - I think Parky said he was one of his best guests. Billy had Parky in stitches every time.
RIP

I immediately thought of him talking to Fred Astaire. RIP

Sad news; his Saturday evening chat shows were part of my childhood.

I liked his interviews with the "Hollywood Greats" but some of his interviews with young actresses were appalling. He was more interested in Helen Mirren's breasts than her acting ability

He was a very good chat show host he really did enjoy his guests and would often be in stitches with their funny antics.

Parky was such a wonderful interviewer, I did like his shows. They don't make them like that any more.

RIP Sir Michael
