Old style slapstick comedian some will remember. His catchphrase was "Hello my darlings" and he was in The Worker with Henry McGee (Debbie's dad) as Mr Pugh. I liked him.

Sadly, I thought he was already dead. Mind you, he did nearly kill himself once or twice with some of the stunts he did!

Sad but a good innings,i think he is yet another who was living in the twickenham home for old actors who's money had run out which is sad as well.

I remember henry mcgee,he passed away earlier this year as well,not sure about him being debbie mcgee's father though.

There has been a few that have left us this year

It was reported he died some time back, last year or the year before about this time of year.
