Ronnie Barker dies
I'm saddened to hear of the death of one of Britain's finest ever comedians, Ronnie Barker.
He starred in the Two Ronnies alongside Ronnie Corbett but I remember him best for his performance as Fletcher in Porridge.
Barker also played Arkwright the shopkeeper in Open All Hours.
He seemed like a very nice and genuine fellow and he will be missed.
