I use to enjoy watching Last Of The Summer Wine.
Quite a few famous people have died just in the past week, how strange.

I used to love watching Last Of The Summer Wine and I thought he played a great part in Porridge.

RIP

Maybe these famous people have given up hope with our country and decided they've had enough.
