        I just read that on the news - that is a bit of a shock! Such a shame, especially as he is so young

            So so sad.. The news stopped me in my tracks.. He was such a great comedian and actor.. Anyone else remember him as "Kevin Turvy".? That was before the Young Ones, he was very young then but still so funny. Another huge loss..

              That's a real shame. A pioneer of alternative comedy, and a real character. I liked him a lot...
