The R.I.P. Thread

Remember the E&S running articles about audience members cars getting locked in the Civic Hall carpark as his show went on that long.

Horrid as a coach driver. Needed 2 drivers because he’d always go on for so long so you’d aways go over driving hours.

Anyone that listens to County cricket on the radio will know Dave 'Cally' Callaghan. RIP

Blimey. That's a big one. I didn't even know he was ill (any more than he was) or anything.

A huge loss to the scientific community.

Doctors believed he had 2 years to live when they diagnosed his condition! He was 21 at that time.

Oh nooo I too loved Bullseye. Especially when the contestants lost everything and he'd come out with ' Look at what you could have won ' :icon_lol:

My favourite Peter Kay sketch is when he's talking about Bullseye.

"And Bully's special prize.....?"

"A speedboat. Always a speedboat. And where do they live? Tamworth."

:icon_lol:

I really am the killjoy of fun.

The West Midlands water ski centre and Kingsbury water park are in the Tamworth area. A speedboat would be very handy.

Used to love the ones who when they ballsed it all up claimed that they had had a great day out & were only there for that - no you weren't you wanted the car or the boat really

The single best thing Jim Bowen ever did were the out-takes of his performance on Phoenix Nights. Bloody hilarious and Peter Kay was in bits.

 

[playtheace]

I wondered what Jim had being doing since Bullseye, didnt realise he had been on the radio.

Something came on my Facebook feed about Stephen Hawkins sense of humour,was along the lines of,
He was being interviewed at home for news night or something,the crew are there fussing about,they unplug something to put the lights on,an alarm goes off,hawking slumps forward,they panic,go and get help,when they come back in,hawking is chuckling away,apparently he had a machine that looked important,but didn't do anything,apart from set an alarm off if it was unplugged,one of his favourite jokes to pull said the family.
