That's a sad piece of news. Another of the 'classic' people of entertainment...may his terminus be clean and tidy when he arrives.

I saw an episode of 'On the Buses' recently, it was truly awful but in an endearingly British kind of way.

I'll 'ave you Butler!

 

[Fnaar]

Yes, bad, but a kind of a good bad. Like Skegness.

First date with the present Mrs. Grind was to watch Holiday On The Busses! God bless him!

The tv episodes now appear quite slow and dated, but the films still make my nine and six year olds p*ss themselves laughing.

RIP Reg.

My tribute to good old Reg.....RIP

He WAS a funny man !

Happy memories !

Good old fashioned English humour which sadly seems to have been swept away by the PC brigade.
Reg Varney was a classic, R>I>P

 

[Dave5N]

Nope. Deeply unfunny. Unmissed.

 

[Dave5N]

Like Skegness.

Typically bad of its time,but an icon of that era,sad news.

I place On the buses in the 'so bad it was good' section.
RIP Reg.

Taste in humour is a strange thing. He was apparently a really nice guy but I also found him deeply unfunny. On the buses wasn't even "so unfunny it's funny". it was just awful.

OK, it doesn't stand the test of time, granted ...
