Jo Kendall, comedy actress aged 83. She was best known as a regular on the classic radio show ‘I’m sorry I’ll read that again’. That show is still repeated on Radio 4 extra but some of the episodes have fallen foul of the censor these days.

Bamber Gascoigne. 24 Jan 1935 - 8 Feb 2022 We all remember him don't we.
Hands up who thought (for a long time anyway) that the clever people sat above the other clever people below.

I remember the obligatary gonk.But for sartorial elegance you could not beat the lecturers on the Open University when it was on every afternoon.Even the residents of the elderly peoples homes would all watch it.

You want to watch TED if you like that sort of thing.
What elderly peoples home was it?
On day work we used to pick them up regularly to take them to their day centre. We used to have a right laugh with some of them.

Anna Karen who played Olive from on the buses passed away aged 85 from a house fire. She was also in Eastenders as Aunt Sal. A terrible way to go.

No doubt through asphyxia rather than flames. I hope that's a better thought in your heads now.
RIP Karen.

RIP both Bowled Shane \.//The best bowler ever,always dreaded it when he came on to bowl.The cricket world is not the same. Also mourning the great Sonny Ramadin.A calypso was written about him and Alfred Louis Valentine who died in 2004. Cricket lovely cricket,at Lord's where I saw it......
