RIP- a comedian,a scholar and a gentleman.

Truly one of the greats, he survived Twinkle the giant kitten only to be taken out by a microscopic bug.

 

 

 

just one final time...

 

How sad.....R.I.P....Tim..????

RIP Tim...loved your work.

Ee by gum  Ecky Thump !!

Very sad news...

 

RIP Tim - a comedy great.

Speaks much about The Goodies that no show since has even tried to emulate it.  Hilarious backdrop to the 70s, and the memory lives on.

I was never a huge Goodies fan but I watched it as not much else to watch in those days and I'm sure few people ever found Tim Brooke-Taylor, Graeme Garden, and Bill Oddie, remotely boring or offensive.  RIP, Tim.  

RIP Tim. Catch extensive I'm Sorry I Haven't a Clue highlights on YouTube.

The legacy of "The funky Gibbon" will live on ! 

 

RIP, you brought many smiles in the 70's.

RIP Tim, I loved the goodies. 

What a legend.. RIP

RIP Tim

 Grew up with the Goodies in the 70s as a kid.
