    King Erik has sadly passed away. Fond memories of him when I was a wee kiddie, he and Hattie Jacques and the copper whose name escapes me.

    Has anyone ever seen his silent film "The Plank". Comedy genius.

    No you're thinking of Lenny Henry at the Cardiff Top Rank in 1977.

    Loved Sykes, Corky the copper was class. Never fancied fat Hatty though.

    I think his show was still on when I was very young, don't remember it. I've seen the plank thing but then it's been repeated many times. RIP.

    Nonsense. You're the dick that doesn't even rate Dad's Army - an absolute classic.

    Aye, Dad's Army, that searing satire.

    While we're at it, **** Monty Python anaw. Their output was 90% ****e. "Life of Brian" was comedic genius and the ****ers have dined out on it ever since.
