depends on ur definition of old school tho really because i cant get enough modern style real comedy that dave allen/billy connelly etc paved the way for much better then the sycophantic pun-laced drivel of des o conner etc but when in improvisation mode or just not in script mode bob was up with the best....

Sad news indeed, he was OK, and had some good game shows, Bobs Full house is the one I remember & Bob's Your Uncle - with hostess Maria Rice Mundy, Linda Lusardi & Kathy Lloyd.

RIP Bob

Surely even Liverpudlians (a more demotic term for Scousers, apparently) don't find Tarby funny............
I believe a man WAS once found who thought Tarbuck funny: he is currently under tender psychiatric care (i.e ECT on Wednesdays only), and a full cure is expected imminently.

shown last night with Bob. They knocked Ricky Gervais's episode off as a tribute to Bob, but under the circumstances, a fair shout.
Oh, Mags............Keith Harris (Ben's twin) was thrown into 101, well Orville was at least

The West London of my youth is now on dvd


I've met the man on the street............and he's a cunt

Top bloke and I shall miss his wit.
Knocked by a lot of people but very sharp when it came to it.

God bless & rest in peace Bob.
