Very sad, RIP.
Just saw on the Welsh news, some of his fans had gathered on Colwyn Bay seafront and were singing The Lumberjack Song in his memory.
Really the Lumberjack Song? Not Always Look on the Bright Side of Life? Or I'm so Worried or Never be Rude to an Arab? At least he sung those.
I listened to Michael Palin talk about him on 5 Live driving home tonight. It was an endearing recollection of their very deep friendship - Palin was seeing him regularly during the past 2 years when he could no longer talk and there wasn’t much response, talking, singing and reading to him.
RIP.
