RIP Clive James

[Illaveago]

It was sad to hear of his death yesterday.
I enjoyed his sense of humour and can remember his shows ending with the singer Margarita Pracatan.

Although channel 4's pith take, banzai!, was also brilliant. I'm a big fan of Mr Shakey Hands.

Loved this quote of his (was unaware of it) from the bbc obit.

"Common sense and a sense of humour are the same thing, moving at different speeds,"

Takes a very special mind to come up with something like that.

RIP.

With footballers and pop stars getting gongs you'd have thought they could have found one for Clive. Maybe because he's Australian.

They did, Officer of the Order of Australia, CBE, other smaller clangers.
