Barry Cryer dies at the age of 86. He wrote jokes for a string of comedy greats but most memorable for me as a stalwart on I'm Sorry I haven't a Clue. He'll have had his tea.........

"A man drives down a country lane and runs over a cockerel. He knocks at a nearby farmhouse door and a woman answers.

"'I appear to have killed your cockerel,' he says. 'I'd like to replace it.' The woman replies: 'Please yourself - the hens are round the back.'"

Two nuns are driving down a dark road, when Dracula jumps onto their car.

One nun says to the other "Quick, show him your cross! Show him your cross!"

The nun shouts "Get off my bloody bonnet!"

I love my comedy, and Barry's death has really upset me. A fantastically kind man too. Contrary to the stereotype, he did buy me a drink once.

A woman walks into a pet shop. "I would like to buy that parrot you have in the window. How much is it?"

"£5 madam."

"£5! That's cheap. What's wrong with it?"

"Well, it used to live in a brothel so I'm afraid it knows quite a lot of bad language".

The woman thinks about it for a while and then says, "well, for £5 I'll take it".

She gets it home and takes the cover off the cage. The parrot immediately says "You're new, a bit old but quite good looking".

Her daughter comes in and the parrot says "You're new as well, very nice, you'll do well".

Her husband walks in and the parrot says "Hello again Derek".

Very typical of Barry, apparently he'd been joking for the last week or so that 'I don't know how long I've got left, I don't dare buy a green banana.'

RIP June Brown, aka Dot Cotton, at the grand old age of 95. Very rare that nobody has a bad word to say about someone, but literally everybody says she was an amazing woman and a fierce defender of civil liberties, as well as a fine actress.

Not a celebrity in the true meaning but a lady who fought for what is right and just after her daughter was literally kicked to death in Bacup. I saw several documentaries and dramas and her courage and determination was terrific.

RIP Mrs Lancaster.

That's awful news Tony, and no doubt her health wasn't helped by the reporting of her daughter's brutal killer's imp[ending release after serving a 5 minute sentence.

I remember watching the trial updates every day Andy and seeing what those horrible little t***s did subsequent documentaries left a profound impression on me about intolerance and hate. I recall Mrs Lancaster saying she thought they did it because they were jealous as Sophie and her boyfriend were different, not the cloned, tracksuited, baseball cap wearing her killers were.
