Yeah Harold, also Carl and Susan Kennedy, and Todie has only just (sort of) left.
Although what you find is the older cast, Harold etc, bascially only show up now and then (given teh above article that makes sense) and for example Carl has been "on holiday" in the show for well over a month now, so they are basically dipping in and out now and then, whilst the younger cast are the more regular.
Its a shame about Harold (real guy I mean) but hes a good age and lived a good life. 86 isnt bad. If you looked at him in 1988 etc, he was older than I am now. Hopefully he got some time left as well, going by that article.
Free beer is very exciting.
