And it's good night fr...
... no I won't do it!
Ronnie Barker died today, which is very sad. He was a great great man, and is responsible for a hell of a lot of laughs when I was growing up. He was an absolute gem and a comedy genius.
But not since Britney Spears got re-married* have I seen so many people go for the Easiest Headline Ever.
If you're thinking of blogging about Barker, and I urge that you do, might I suggest you use one of these headlines? (Thanks to Jo for some of these.)
Now it's ONE Ronnie. Fairly obvious.
Fletch Dies. You have to have heard of the film "Fletch Lives" to get this one.
Purple Ronnie. Okay, I admit it. That is bad taste.
Funny one dies first, again. As it always seems.
Just some suggestions. Feel free to use them, or make up your own!
*work out the headline yourself

Ron: Gone
I think this is a bit unfair. Undoubtedly Mr Barker was the more creative of the two and a truly great comic character actor, but Mr Corbett has great understanding of comedy and his timing is superb. Having said that people like Ronnie Barker, Eric Morecambe, Tommy Cooper were special. I agree with you - he was an absolute gem.
Whoops, sorry!
A great loss :-(
Cant think of anything funny and inspiring sorry.
