popped his clogs, snuffed it, conked out (a la John le Mesurier), pissed on his props and said farewell to the profession... (could just mean he left the entertainment business of course).

One thing among many that piss me off is young people talking, or shouting more like conversations between themselves and usually using foul language as part of their speech pattern.

I blame the ,so called, alternative comedians. Goldilocks. Even they would not have been able to use some of the language I heard at the bus station yesterday afternoon. I watch quite a lot of rugby. At one match a couple of years ago there were a couple of opposing fans in the stands behind me, mouthing off. Within a very short time there were shouts of 'Oi, bottle it, there are women and children in this stand' And they did bottle it with brief 'sorry mate' and we all settled down. Yes we all swear, but it is not the same as I heard yesterday and hear frequently in the street. I think it is because a lot of people have very limited vocabularies and the only way they can emphasise anything is with more and more obscenities.

I remember 'alternative comedians' - back in the 60s weren't they? Ben Elton was one... bloody terrible, but not a bad writer.

That would rule out most of them - Bob Newhart, Al Read, Gillie Potter, Tony Hancock, Sid Field... and so on.

I briefly caught some of the programme featuring (god what was his NAME The Irishman with a finger missing, smoked a lot, wore a suit!) And I thought most of it was very funny. All to do with timing.

Dave Allen - lovely bloke. Very stylish comic and a good actor into the bargain

That is the man, and still made me laugh decades after it was recorded.
