Oh no. One of my favourites.

A sad day for Felicity.

Recent interview only a couple of weeks ago. He knew he didn't have long. Said the truth is he was 'bu!%*red - a lifetime of cigarettes. He also said Felicity had never kept touch, so doubt she'll be overly sad.

Sorry no, but it was only about three weeks ago in the Mail. Joint interview with Prunella Scales. I had the paper version rather than Online, but you can probably track it down.

Sad news R.I.P.

(I'm 30 and Felicity is a big fave) but R.B. will be missed

He gave up smoking aged 70. Most people jack it in long before that age. The damage was done for sure. What a horrible way to commit painful suicide.

Shortly followed by the father of Roobarb.

The Good Life was actually way ahead of its time and also is still very funny now which is the test of any great situation comedy.

RIP Briers - a huge loss to the acting industry

Really saddened when I heard this. I always felt he was like an affable uncle whenever I heard his voice.
