(voice of Wallace from Wallace and Gromit and Cleggy from Last of the Summer Wine)

I mostly think of his voice from The Wind In The Willows, the stop motion one from the 80s, with David Jason as Toad.

I've seen a couple of tweets saying that Andy Cunningham (Bodger from Bodger and Badger) has died. No official word yet though.

I'd say he was at least 40 in the programme. So 60 odd now

Really? I always thought he was young in that programme. Maybe it was his stylish hat.

It really doesn’t matter if it’s raining or it’s fine
Just as long as you’ve got time
To P-L-A-Y playaway-play, playaway,
Play-a-play, playaway.
Never mind the weather — get it together
The sun can shine and the rain can fall
Come on P-L-A-Y playaway-play, playaway,
Play-a-play, playaway.
Running down the road, strolling up the street
If you’re feeling happy tap your feet
Come on P-L-A-Y playaway-play, playaway,
Play-a-play, playaway.
Sitting on your own and you’re wondering what to do
Go out and make a friend then there’ll be two!
Come on P-L-A-Y playaway-play, playaway,
Play-a-play, playaway.
One more time — la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la, la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la-la
Come on P-L-A-Y playaway-play, playaway,
Play-a-play, playaway
PLAYAWAY!

Post subject:  Re: Celebrity Deathlist 2017

When I was five or six, I was taken to a pantomime which had Grotbags in. She terrified me, as I sat gripping the seat in the dress circle. She strode up and down the stage, telling us children how she was going to cancel Christmas and break all our toys. I cannot remember what did it, what the breaking point was, but I was suddenly sobbing hysterically.
At the interval, my friend's parents took me home. I must have ruined my friend's birthday. Sorry, Karen P. But, Grotbags, you were amazing.

Sam Shepard. I was wondering why the name didn't ring a bell, so I looked through his acting credits and I've only seem him in 'Killing Them Softly' - a film I can barely remember anything about.

Also wrote Paris, Texas which is one of my favourite films, and was in the magnificent Days of Heaven, the only film I can tolerate Richard Gere in. He was a great playwright in the Raymond Carver vein too. I'll miss him.

Hywel Bennett has just died too. He'll always be Croup, from Neverwhere for me. "Croup and Vandemar, the Old Firm, obstacles obliterated, nuisances eradicated, bothersome limbs removed and tutelary dentistry undertaken." But he was also sterling in Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy.
