At least he is not named after artistic topiary like the hedge

Sorry I’m a bit late for this but I’ve actually been invited by a contact in my industry to attend a gathering before the funeral though we of course have to leave for the ‘main event’.
I’ll be gone when the mourning comes.
Barry Cryer.
I thought he was immortal
Kept going and making me laugh to 86
RIP

RIP
He was old so you probably hated him without realising
You are turning into a very mean young person pam
I have no Ayres or graces.
RIP Barry Cryer.
Most of the celebrity deaths recorded here mean little to me, but every now and then one hits home. This is one of those.
A wonderfully talented writer and seemed like a genuinely nice man.
