chuckmum6 Posted February 18, 2013 Share Posted February 18, 2013 Smoked like a chimney apparently, but he was certainly a slice from my childhood, seemed like a lovely man. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valkyrie Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 I only realised this last night when we watched Top Gear and he voiced their Sat Nav. My first memory of him was Marriage Lines with Prunella Scales and he was funny and cute. I think he might have reminded me of my dad at the time. Then of course The Good Life - which OH was so taken with as a young lad (and a fancy for Felicity Kendall helped). RIP Richard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
