Geoffrey Palmer: TV and film actor aged 93 Actor Geoffrey Palmer, known for his roles in such sitcoms as Butterflies, As Time Goes By and The Fall and Rise of Reginald Perrin, has died aged 93. He died peacefully at home, his agent said. Versatile and prolific, he was known and loved for his hangdog expression, lugubrious delivery and the often testy demeanour he gave to his characters. As Time Goes By saw him star with Dame Judi Dench, a partnership they revived in Bond film Tomorrow Never Dies. He also acted in Mrs Brown, again with Dench, and The Madness of King George. www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-54838209My first memories of him are from Butterflies and the Reginald Perrin series.

Stand-up comic and actor Norm Crosby has passed away at age 93.
Back in the late '70's, when I was visiting my parents, we went to see one of his performances. He was very good, although the acoustics in the auditorium were so bad that I had trouble understanding his monologues.
RIP, Norm.

Len BarryJune 12, 1942 - November 5, 2020  Barry left his mark on the music landscape of the '60s with his uniquely distinctive and memorable voice, first as lead vocalist of The Dovells, best remembered for The Bristol Stomp and You Can't Sit Down, then going solo in the second half of the decade, scoring a monster hit with 1-2-3. And yes, his appearance on the CFB is appropriate enough; there must be someone who considers Don't Knock the Twist, from which the first clip below comes, to be a classic.
